Two examples; 1) I need to move the nfs data domain to a new server, whats the best way? 2) I think this applies the same as above, if I need to rename the nfs server hostname, whats the best way? I managed to "export/import" the export and iso domains and have them up and running on the new server, however, since you can't import a data domain, i'm wondering whats the best method for this. thanks

nevermind, it appears i've figured this out; shut down all VMs put the export and iso storage into maintenance mode put data domain into maintenance mode paths can be edited, in the system - storage tab reenable everything On Thu, Mar 20, 2014 at 12:21 PM, David Smith <dsmith@mypchelp.com> wrote:

apparently only the data domain path can be edited at this point.. different procedure for iso/exports? On Thu, Mar 20, 2014 at 12:49 PM, David Smith <dsmith@mypchelp.com> wrote:

I believe for the iso/exports domain you can export them from the UI Storage tab once they are detached from the data center, then import them from new server. Haven't tested this thoroughly, but before my system was production I had to shift storage domains around due to host renaming. - Trey On Thu, Mar 20, 2014 at 2:51 PM, David Smith <dsmith@mypchelp.com> wrote:

oops, replying to all. this is more or less what i did, i had to mess with the metadata file inbetween, remove a line, and edit the hostname and optionally the share name. On Thu, Mar 20, 2014 at 3:33 PM, Trey Dockendorf <treydock@gmail.com> wrote:
