two hard drives in my mythbox backend used for storage
groups.<br>
The 500GB was fine, the 1TB was starting to show many
smart errors, kernel errors in dmesg, and frontends would
wedge trying to access some recordings.<br>
<br>
So I bought a 2TB and fitted it, moved all the dodgy drive
recordings I could, and all is well, I had 2.5TB of
space...<br>
which was a bit of a waste, so I wanted to move all
recordings from the 500GB over to the new drive, and
retask the 500 for backuppc storage.<br>
<br>
This was dead-simple, just a matter of waiting for the
backend to not be recording anything to that storage
group, then move all the files across.<br>
Seriously, I thought there would be a lot of database
updates required, but that was all it took.<br>
<br>
Then in the mythtv-setup command I had to remove /myth3
and leave /myth1 (names are historic from when I had 3x
30GB drives for storage)<br>
and update nfs exports and sundry housekeeping.<span

<div>Why are you nfs exporting? Myth doesn't need it.<br>

Just because I can - I already use NFS to get the videos directory
mounted on frontends. You're right, its not necessary for myth.<br>
