I've read the posted article on conversion of filesystem, but I'm still confused. Let me preface this by laying out my current setup:
I have 8 total hard drives (8TB each), with two of those drives serving as parity drives. Three of the data drives are reiserfs filesystem, and three of the data drives are XFS filesystem. I recently purchased a number of 14TB hard drives and will be upgrading all 8 to 14TB drives.
Right now one of the parity drives is being upgraded, but my question is what is the absolute easiest way to deal with upgrading the reiserfs 8TB drives to 14TB xfs drives? I was hoping it'd be a 1:1 upgrade, but it sounds like if I assign a 14TB in an existing 8TB reiserfs data drive spot, it will be rebuilt as an reiserfs drive instead of xfs filesystem.
Can anyone lay out the simplest way to upgrade my 8TB drives to 14TB, ensuring that all the data drives are XFS?
