December 13, 20232 yr Author Ok, new pool created and the array is started. New diagnostics. Do I need to run a balance on the new pool before I attempt to use it? To move the data from the old cache to the new cache, do I just edit each share that is using the old cache and set new cache as primary and old cache as secondary and then run mover? turtle-diagnostics-20231213-1207.zip

With the mover you will need to move to the array first, since there's no pool to pool support for now, then move form the array to the new pool, alternatively you can use for example midnight commander (mc on the console) or the Dynamix File Manager plugin to copy the data directly, note that if you stop the array you will likely need to re-import the old pool again.

Ok, so I am moving the files now. Once done then I can just delete the old pool and no need to worry about re-importing anymore and everything should be fixed?

The new cache pool seems to be working just like it should. There was only one file that couldn't make the move, but other than that, it went smoothly. I am gonna call this problem fixed. Now, can I buy you a beer or coffee or make a donation to your favorite charity to thank you?
