So, as title says, I screwed up my ''migration'' for my apps.
I was actually converting my main Pool from a triple-vdev RAIDZ1 (I know, that's dumb) to a better RAIDZ3 setup.
So, I just backup everything from my pool with a simple command:
Process completes overnight and after a long day of work, I come back home, delete the pool as all my data is now saved on my second pool and a quick checksum matches both folders so everything is there for sure, and while I'm at it I replace a dying drive.
So after I'm done will all that I just recreate the pool but as RAIDZ3 and now I realize that whoops, my apps were on POOL1-RZ1 as opposed to POOL2 on my other server, so I thought I was good not double-checking which pool my apps were on since they're always on POOL2 on my other server.
I noticed that in my backup I have over on my POOL4, I have the directory
Can I recover my apps from this ?
So far I have tried to simply copy the folder and overwrite every existing
I'm about to attempt copying without overwriting the existing files and see if it works.
Is there a way to do this at all or did I really 100% screwed up everything by not migrating the apps to another pool beforehand ?
Note: I wouldn't loose much data redoing all the apps since the most important apps I use are not stored with PVCs (but rather host paths), but I would like to avoid reinstalling everything as much as possible.
Note2: I have both TrueNAS official, Custom images and TrueCharts apps on that server.
