October 10, 20223 yr anybody got any experience with this? I'm using the protected-parity "Mirroring procedure to convert drives" - in order to (slowly) migrate my drives from reiserFS to xfs https://wiki.unraid.net/File_System_Conversion#Mirroring_procedure_to_convert_drives the main part of which involves the command: % rsync -avPX /mnt/<disksrc> /mnt/<diskdst> things went OK on the first disk I migrated. but for some reason a few days later when I repeated the process on the 2nd migration (reiserFS -> blank xfs), AFTER the rsync had finished, the files on the xfs disk all had contemporary timestamps (from the time period of the file copy) rather than the original/source file dates has anybody seen anything like this before? it's too late for me to try now, but would re-running the rsync command in that case have been a worthwhile thing to try? (presumably it would copy nothing, but maybe it would fix-up the timestamp info?)
