I have recently built up a 11.2U7 freeNAS and created a pool tank1
.A blog by Benjamin Bryan recommends a particular data hierarchy to best manage backups with respect to data importance. I feel this setup will be useful for my own uses and went ahead and crated the dataset
tank1/ds1
.My plan is to now migrate my data to this new dataset and I will probably be using Resilio Sync. I went ahead and installed Resilio using the plugin. This went smoothly and it works. However I noticed that I now have a dataset
tank1/iocage
. I would rather have the /iocage
dataset nested in tank1/ds1/iocage
to facilitate backing up the iocage folder to another server that may already have an /iocage
dataset.I was trying to move it but both the Plugins and Jails tabs only give the single option of
tank1
instead of tank1/ds1
for the Activated Pool.I went ahead and deleted the Resilio Jail and all associated accounts, groups, datasets, and even the
/iocage
dataset. It still won't let me change the location of /iocage
.Interestingly, after deleting
tank1/iocage
it eventually came back, but with less data (not including the files of the freeNAS update from U6 to U7. The server somehow noticed it was gone and rebuilt it...FreeBSD jails manual has some commands but I am hesitant to run them without being sure.
Code:
jail_zfs_dataset=iocage/jails/UUID/root/data
There are a few threads across these forums and reddit of people trying to move the pool, however I can't find anyone trying to place
tank/iocage
in the dataset tank/ds/iocage
.This thread mentions the
iocage clean -a
command. This may help me reset things, but I still don't think its enough to achieve my goal.Does anyone know how to move
tank/iocage
to tank/ds/iocage
?
