Hey all,
Planning on merging two FreeNAS systems into one. The question I have is, can I power down my secondary NAS, pull the drives out (raidZ1) and put them in my other freeNAS while it's still powered on and import the pool. Or should I power down both systems, move the drives over and power main NAS back up then import the pool?
I have a feeling I should just power down both systems, but I don't want to power down both ESXi hosts that are running off my main NAS. (laziness at it's best)
Thank you in advance!
