February 26, 20242 yr Hi people. I stumbled over Spaceinvader One's latest videos on ZFS last week and I have now switch to ZFS on both my cache pools and I have updated one of my array drives to ZFS. It all works soooo smoothly and with snapshotting it gets real easy to make blunders I do have one issue atm: I have created a raidz of two drives (for longterm keeping of photos and documents) and yesterday I ran Unbalanced on the Photos share and copied (or moved?) all my photos from the array to the new raidz pool. I have not yet converted this folder on the raidz to a dataset. I then switched the primary storage on the share to the new raidz location and no secondary - and now it seems I have files both on the array and in the new raidz pool. Is this correct? I want to ask before I do anything else because I have lost data in these situations before Can I delete the data in /mnt/user/Photos? Edited February 26, 20242 yr by Ulf Thomas Johansen
