additional 1TB) and then deleting the 1TB of data would s
Correct. As I mentioned in the original post.
The volume had about 1TB of other data. A block level copy would have
taken to long.

I can confirm this works now. I tested it last night between two volumes.
The issue was the path in the config file. My mistake was updating the
path to the new location then running the script. I reverted to the
original path, ran the script to move the files then put the new path
back. It worked
We have them on the old machine. We shutdown the service and will
retain the old information as long as we need to.
I would have preferred to migrate it but the BackupPC_tarPCCopy script
was not supported on the OS the old system was running on.
The BackupPC_tarPCCopy scripts works fine on the ne

This was the path I chose.
* Migrate the system configurations (/etc/BackupPC)
* Let the pool build on its own. Rebuilding (in this case creating a
