Hi everyone, I have my Proxmox running on the old Samsung SSD 860 EVO which seems to be failing. I couldn't create a new container today and running a SMART check on
I also have an unused Crucial MX500 SSD attached (sde), which I would like to migrate my Proxmox to while I acquire a low capacity enterprise grade SSD with PLP.
Questions:
/dev/sdb shows errors and bad blocks. I have some VMs on this disk but they are backuped and not really critical so I don't mind losing them. My main LXC/VM data and other files are on a ZFS mirror (2x Intel D3-S4610, sda+sdc).I also have an unused Crucial MX500 SSD attached (sde), which I would like to migrate my Proxmox to while I acquire a low capacity enterprise grade SSD with PLP.
Questions:
- What would be the best way move Proxmox into safe area e.g. to a new MX500? I see options like 'Move storage', but also I can imagine it would be better to just install new Proxmox on MX500 and recover config. Is there an agreed way to retreive full existing config if I go with fresh install route? If I do 'move storage' is there a chance that some of the corrupted data would carry on into a new drive?
- Before doing migration, do I need to disconnect D3-S4610 with ZFS, or is there no risk that something will happen to that?
