Hello,
I am migrating from a QNap to a fresh TrueNas, and trying to take disk images previously shared by iSCSI on the QNAP and load them into a new ZVol to then share via iSCSI.
I have the image file locally on the TrueNas box, but need to copy the disk image file into a precreated Zvol.
I have tried "dd if=/mnt/Pool1/Files/ServerDisk1.img of=/dev/Pool1/iSCSITargets/ServerDisk1 bs=1m"
Is there a better/simpler/more TrueNas way?
thanks in advance

- /mnt/Pool1/Files/ServerDisk1.img = the "source" disk image
- /dev/Pool1/iSCSITargets/ServerDisk1 = the destination pre-created zvol (as a block device, but created at /mnt/Pool1/iSCSITargets/ServerDisk1)
