December 5, 201510 yr Replacing 3 old 1TB drives with a single 4TB. Started by replacing one of the 1TB's with the 4TB and letting Unraid rebuild the data. That worked fine. Next I thought all I had to do was: rsync -av /mnt/disk<old1TB> /mnt/disk<new4TB> That ran for a while with lots of output but I can see some folders were not sync'd onto the new 4TB. Is there a gotcha when doing this between /mnt/disk<n>'s and having user shares? I did a mv of a small missed directory (between disk mounts again, not user shares) and it worked fine. Was hoping to do use the safer rsync method though. No errors in log so I must be missing something fundamental. Any ideas? I followed the "safer method" here: https://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/Replacing_Multiple_Data_Drives_with_a_Single_Larger_Drive Thanks
December 6, 201510 yr Author lol! So doing: rsync -av /mnt/disk7 /mnt/disk5 Created /mnt/disk5/disk7. So now, from /mnt/disk5, I am doing: rsync -a disk7 ./ Hopefully that will put everything from the original disk7 folders into the equivalent disk5 ones.
