Does TrueNAS scale have a data migration assistant or tool to make migrating everything painless between installs?
A use case example:
- Setting up TrueNAS Scale on a VM
- Configuring all apps (containers)
- Some basic shares
Then having a brand new hardware with TNS installed
- bigger physical drives (no fake VM disks)
Ideally this would help people who want to play with setting up TrueNAS Scale Apps in a VM and then wish to move it to real-dedicated hardware later, without having to manually re-do the entire thing manually again. "Thing" defined as creating Apps, configurations, etc. I realize this ask is probably such a rare edge case that it doesn't exist... but hey better asking and I may be surprised that there's a way to do this.
