I've finally decided to take the brave leap from my working FreeNAS 8.3 to 9.1. However I have some concerns over losing some stuff that took a while to set up in 8.3 so I was hoping that I might be able to get a little detail on anything I might lose, or can back up, to re-use under 9.1
This is a media server so I had previously manually installed sickbeard, sabnzdb, mysql (for xbmc database maintenance), headphones, and the like on this box in a jail.
My assumption is that my jail will be either lost, or the plugins residing in this jail will no longer function in 9.1.
I realize that there are new, better plugins for a lot of this stuff, but also hope that someone might be able to point me towards files or items I can save from the current jail under 8.3, so I don't lose anything critical in 9.1. My assumption is that FreeNAS itself, my shares, volumes, config, will all survive the upgrade, but that anything in the jail and any plugins are safe to assume as getting totally destroyed.
Any help or pointers from someone who has been through it, as far as what I can do before I take the plunge, would really be appreciated.
Thanks for FreeNAS!
