And if you use the Remote Share feature of Unassigned Devices, it will take care of all that for you.
December 28, 20232 yr Ok I'll try changing the remote mount around, thanks guys. I'm also noticing some of the copied folders are not visible on windows again after using pure `cp` overnight. Will need another day to resolve everything and try some more tests.
December 29, 20232 yr I went back, and set up the remotes through the unraid UI and went back to rsync to validate the migrations, etc. and everything seems to be alright now. So either something related to manually mounting source dirs in the /mnt directory, which doesn't entirely make sense to me unless it indirectly impacts the other serving up of the shares. Or there was some sort of caching issue on either the server or windows client given I was transferring thousands of subdirs in some of these shares at once. Or something else entirely.
