How restore (domain, appdata, system)? (Solved)

[Braulio]

My SSD had a problem. I lost everything, it doesn't read anything. Inside it had the folders (domain, appdata, system).

I have backup all of them, however when I restore the dockers and VMs they don't appear.

I restored so:
appdata = Settings -> Backup/Restore Appdata
system (libvirt and docker) = copy and paste to new SSD
domain (vms) = copy paste to new SSD

Any suggestion?

Tks

attach diagnostics to your NEXT post in this thread

Diagnostics is a single zip file. There is no need for you to convert it to anything else, and we shouldn't have to install software to help you.

 

If it appears to you that you have downloaded a bunch of folders and files it is because your computer automatically opened that single zip file.

 

Find that single zip file wherever it was downloaded and attach it to your NEXT post in this thread.

Docker image can easily be recreated, did you restore the libvirt.img to the original path? The one mounted in the diags is new, first make sure you don't have multiple copies, post the output of:

 

find /mnt -name libvirt.img

system share has files on disk1. Probably created there because Docker and VM Manager were enabled when there was no cache.

@trurl @JorgeB

Output command "find /mnt/ -name libvirt.img"
/mnt/user/system/libvirt/libvirt.img
/mnt/vms_dockers/system/libvirt/libvirt.img
 

1) I created the folders (appdata/system/vms) in the array.
2) I selected "Use cache pool (for new files/directories): PREFER"
3) After copying from array to cache I selected "Use cache pool (for new files/directories): ONLY" because I don't want "move" again. The Vms and dockres will be in the cache and I will backup by CA Backup.

I took a test. Everything I create in the array folders (appdata/system/vms) also is created in the cache folders (I think the array folders are defined as a reference to cache folder).

 

VMs = Solved
I only had 2 virtual machines. So I created new virtual machines to solve the problem faster.

 

Docker = Unresolved
The dockers still don't show up. I need help fixing this part.

/mnt/user is the user shares, which includes all of the array disks plus all of the pools, so these

/mnt/user/system/libvirt/libvirt.img
/mnt/vms_dockers/system/libvirt/libvirt.img

are just different views of the same file. That is all OK.

 

Do that same command with docker.img

find /mnt/ -name docker.img

You are probably misinterpreting /mnt/user as only including the array, which isn't the case as mentioned.

Now I'm understanding why there is this (/mnt /disk1 /user0).

I run "move" again and now the folders no longer appear on disk1 (array).
 

This (docker-xfa.img) is that was created (new).
The old one I don't have.
I only have the appdata backup that has already been restored.

Now I need to make them appear (menu -> docker)
