Hi,
I’ve lots of files and folders to transfer from one pool to another and these folders have windows shares. I am doing this to rebalance the pool after adding 2 more disks. I’ve previously tried rebalancing script given in these forums but it gave me permission errors so i decided to it manually. However same problems occured when doing this manually. When i try to move files while keeping permissions it started to give me errors so i stopped it although it moved some files. My question is what kind of headache can it cause to me if i move files like this? I tried accessing some moved files and i can still run them.
Also my other question is as far as i know when you add 2 more disks as a mirror to a pool which does also have a mirror, you double performance right? but there is no tool inside truenas(as far as i know) to rebalance the pool to be able to actually reach the speed like this? So what am i missing here? Does everybody move files from one place to another when add new disks to their pools to be able to have the performance benefits? I am a regular home user and even i had to transfer 5 tb of files for this. I cant think of people with big servers.
Thanks in advance.
