Howdy, I'm wanting to move a Data partition over to a new set of drives that are encrypted. I decided the easiest way to do this is to put the new drives on the NAS box and mount them like I do when I backup my large Video directory only copy the Data files instead. So, on the NAS box, I set up the three drives, 2 16TB and the famous 20TB drive, with LVM and dm-setup. Once I had that setup, I mounted in just like I would the Video directory. I also ran exportfs -a so it would see the newly mounted drive set and make it available. On my main rig, I then mounted it using the same command I would for the Video directory for backups. Then I took the same command for backing up my video but just replaced the source and target with the Data path instead of video. Basically, everything is set up the same, I just replaced everything with the drives I want info copied to in both mounting drives and commands.
This is the error I get. rsync: [generator] recv_generator: mkdir "/mnt/TV_Backup/Data/random directory" failed: Permission denied (13) I know to run the rsync command as a user, not root. I have to do that when updating my video backups. I recall getting a error, could be this one, at first but setting something to make it work. I can't recall what I had to do tho. I also have no notes on this. I'm sure I'm missing something but no idea what. Anyone ran into this before and remember what to do to fix it? Internet searches aren't helping either. Thanks. Dale :-) :-)
