I had a system setup with 2 NAS units.

They both were mounted as /NFS/data and /NFS2/data

Plex and others assumed tv on one and movies on the other.

So, since I combined both units into one humongo FreeNas, I really could get away with mounting it under /NFS/data, but most of my stuff is configured for both.

So what I am looking for is the equivalent of the old 'mount -bind /NFS/data /NFS2/data' type statement

The the pprograms will pull what they want from where they expect it, and no db rebuilding etc.

So, is this what 'Alternate Mount Point' is for?

ok, so I am using the way I did it before.

Adding a 'mount -bind' on my Centos6 that runs plexmediaserver seems to work well.

The later pms programs seem much better at finding moved media, so I might just remove nfs2 and let it look at nfs. Last time I had to do this, it reassigned all to nfs, used my found metadata on all but 46 out of 8900 items, so it dod good. I assumed those items had been modified at themoviedb, so it reset the descriptions/etc for them.

So, I put pms in a jail, and am moving my Plex Media Server folder over to it, take a long time, and will have the jailed one try to read my items and reindex. We will see!
