I’m upgrading hardware and swapping in the upgraded server into production. After building the new pools as mirrors on the new server (from Z1 on the old), my plan is to, 1) copy the data over, 2) manually recreate the users, shares and other settings, and 3) change the ip address and name to that of the old server. I am open to suggestions on simplifying the process.
Is replication the proper tool to transfer the data? If so, I’m interested in transferring over the entire pool structure, including datasets. Can I select
I have tried to execute this to a newly created pool with “Full File System Replication” enabled but am getting the error: Target dataset ‘NewNAS-Data’ does not have snapshots but has data (915046400 bytes used) and replication from scratch is not allowed. Refusing to overwrite existing data.
