The process is covered here in the online documentation accessible via the ‘Manual’ link at the bottom of the GUI or the DOCS link at the top of each forum page. The Unraid OS->Manual section in particular covers most features of the current Unraid release. Quote Link to comment
superloopy1 Posted November 21, 2023 Author Share Posted November 21, 2023 (edited) Thansk, that takes care of the shares but what do i need to do to move the docker-xfs.img file from the ssd? Can i just move it from ssd to the array or is that too simplistic? I'm trying to avoid having to recreate all docker containers as i'm sure this is where it all went wrong last time when the previous ssd failed.

If the file is located in the ‘system’ share (which is the default), then the linked process would work. Alternatively you could use the Dynamix File Manager to do it manually. Quote Link to comment
superloopy1 Posted November 21, 2023 Author Share Posted November 21, 2023 (edited) The file is 'mnt/cache/docker-xfs.img' and is freestanding .... so, its ok to just 'move' it ? Edited November 21, 2023 by superloopy1 Quote Link to comment

Do not forget the Docker Service needs to be disabled while you are doing all this. 1 Quote Link to comment
