Copy Dataset Problem

[Jamoer]

Hi Everyone,

I just copied a dataset from old pool to new dataset in new pool, within the same machine. Im using truenas.
I use rsync -rtlgoD --progress --compress-level=0 /mnt/oldpool/oldfile /mnt/newpool/newfile

And i also set the newfile dataset for SMB share.

The rsync run smooth, sending incremental and create the folders within the newfile dataset. The files are copied, and i even checked the pool status and dashboard from GUI and i can see my new hdd volume was decreased as expected. At the end, the total volume of the newfile dataset is equal to the oldfile dataset.

But, when i tried to browse the newfile dataset from windows, all i can see are folders. and no files in each folders. I even tried to browse the newfile dataset from CLI, and its just the same, only FOLDERS... no Files...

Anyone can help me out ? Im sure the files are copied succesfully, since the hdd of the new dataset shows me the amount of the dataset volume.

Hopefully someone can help me out...

thanks

I am not very competent in this SMB/Windows ACL thing but I suspect your problem lies there. I don't know if rsync is even capable of transferring all of the extended attributes and ACLs.

May I suggest using zfs send | zfs receive as an alternative? That will definitely give you a 100% identical copy.
