Scotch Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 Dear Unraid Experts, I hope you can help me I would like to start again with my Unraid server. However, I do not know what is the most convenient way to go about this. At the moment I run Unraid on an old laptop with a half broken USB stick and 3 USB hdd (6 TB total). Several virtual machines and docker containers are running on it which are important to keep the house running and should not be offline for too long. There is already a new server ready which I have built with 1 TB cache and 12 TB storage and a new 16 GB USB 2.0. Ideally, I would like to run both machines side by side for 1 or 2 days to transfer everything. I have read the topics 'start over' and 'Changing The Flash Device' and based on that I come to the following steps: 1. Flash a new USB with Unraid; 2. Configure Unraid on new machine; 3. Transferring Virtuals machines; 4. Migrate Docker containers; 5. Migrating data 6. Switching off old laptop; 7. Transfer the unraid key to the new USB stick using the manual method. I would like your feedback on this Are the steps correct? Have I forgotten anything? Quote Link to comment
