Hi all,

It’s been a long… years at work and my brain is fried currently with no bandwidth to properly determine how to migrate a BTFRS array from unraid over to proxmox. I can see the array in proxmox and am able to mount it but now I cannot for the life of me figure out how to

  1. verify that the data is intact
  2. assign it to a storage pool for use in vm’s
  3. view it within proxmox

I haven’t touched proxmox in years after settling on unraid a while back, but am looking to move back to a non-unraid config.

Anyone here have experience with btfrs and proxmox? Any good links to a tutorial or video?

Thanks!

    If you have new drives: make a zfs array and copy all files there

    If you want to recycle drives while temporarily keeping the parity drives: from unraid 7 set a drive as unused, use the mover (or unbalance) to empty it, check if it’s actually empty by going to /mnt/diskX , format it as btrfs, set it as preferred for your shares, choose another disk to empty, use the mover to move all the data from the next disk to the new btrfs one, then remove the empty drive and add it to the btrfs raid. Repeat.
