Even if it's not an identical disk, if the target disk is larger, you can use dd to copy the data pool partition, then grow your filesystem after this. I've used this successfully in the past on a few occasions. dd is definitely the fastest way I found to copy a BackupPC data pool (tho I haven't experimented with ZFS or btrfs). -- Carl Soderstrom Systems Administrator Real-Time Enterprises www.real-time.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
