skinsvpn Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 I want to add an SSD as a new cache pool for my VMs to take advantage of the multiple cache pools feature. What is the best method for moving my vdisks over to the new VM cache pool? Quote Link to comment

The main thing to keep in mind is vdisks are created by default as sparse, so whichever method you land on needs to take that into consideration. Also, if the paths in your XML definition files are referencing /mnt/cache instead of /mnt/user, those paths will have to be changed as well. Quote Link to comment
skinsvpn Posted June 10, 2021 Author Share Posted June 10, 2021 Can I copy the domains folder over with cp --sparse=always in that case? Quote Link to comment
