I sure this has been answered a thousand times but just want to make sure that i dont mess up my arrays data.
Im currently on 5.0.5 and would now like to upgrade to 6.0b10a as it seems quite stable. The main purpose of my server is for media, i have PlexConnect and Plex Media Server running as plugins. When i upgrade i was going to use docker to replace these 2 plugins (obviously with their newer 64bit versions).
My understanding is that in v6 the cache will need to be reformatted to a different file format, this isnt a problem but the PMS and PlexConnect databases are held on my cache, is there a way to back them up and then restore them so i don't have to rescan my whole media library?
When i upgrade to v6 how do i assign my disks in the array so that i don't loose the data that is on them?
With regard to my shares i will just redo these as they are a mess currently.
