User Database Migration Errors

Insight & Feedback
1

Hey guys! I need some help.
So I recently set up my server and have everything up and running. Ive been doing some research and saw that I should migrate all the app data, docker images, and user database to my storage drive instead of the OS Drive.

I was able to migrate the App Data and the Docker Images however I can not get the User database to migrate. I keep getting the “Destination Path Is Not Empty” error.

The destination drive, which is my storage drive that is set up in a Raid 1 Array, has all my movies and media and stuff.

Does anybody no how to force the migration? Or should I reformat my raid1 storage drive so its empty then retry the migration?

I saw in the forums that the destination drive needs to be formatted in EXT4 though my raid 1 array is formatted in Btrfs so Im not sure if reformatting it will work cause it will still format the drives to Btrfs.

Do you guys have any thoughts on how I should go about fixing this?

Yeah this one’s pretty simple in the end.

That error just means the destination isn’t empty, ZimaOS won’t move the user database into a folder that already has stuff in it.

Since your RAID has movies and media, it’ll keep failing every time.

No need to reformat or worry about Btrfs, that’s fine. You just need to point the migration to a completely empty folder (or a clean location on that drive).

I wouldn’t wipe your RAID for this.
