Moving a Windows VM from a HDD Pool to new SSD Pool

[ToW]

Hello all,

I have done some reading and thought I understood how this was achieved using ZFS Send/Receive, however when I run these commands I am getting nowhere fast!

I am attempting to move my VM install (WNSyncVM) from my spinning disks over to a second SSD pool (See below). However when I use the ZFS Send, it throws up some responses I couldn’t see whilst searching for a solution.





I have a feeling it may be an obvious fix but I cannot seem to find one in all my googling.

Thanks in advance!

Just a guess since I'm no expert on the matter itself: the output tells you too many arguments and you have a space in your path Storage Server. Maybe you need to use " " to incorporate that?

Code:

zfs send "Storage Server/..." ...

I'm on mobile that's why I didn't retype your complete path/command.

The same would then also go for the path of your receiving end.

Thank you so much! I knew it would be something simple! I had read somewhere about keeping things lower case and without spaces was good practice and this is a great example why!

Thanks again my friend!
