Moving backups from OLD PBS to NEW PBS permission issues

[NUC Admin]

Hello all, first time poster, please let me know, if I am in the right place to post this.

I have an old PBS setup, VM with drive attached.

I made a new physical server with more Drives and wanted to move the old backups to the NEW PBS

PBS OLD - v 2.0-4
PBS NEW - v2.2-1

Tried -
I have tried to change the permissions on the /mnt/datastore/*datastorename*

I have setup a Remote Job to sync from the OLD PBS to the NEW PBS and get the following report

Please let me know, if I missed anything

I have tried to change the permissions on the /mnt/datastore/*datastorename*

what are the permissions now? the datastore should belong to the user/group 'backup'

Good morning, I think a few things went wrong, the host name and the datastore were the same, I moved some files from the old PBS to the new.

I am not sure what happened, but I created a new PBS machine different host name and datastore.

Did a remote/Sync job and currently copying the files over
