I just got my hands on a new server. I'm running VMware on it and OMV is one of the VMs. I've installed OMV, added and mounted my data disk (EXT4) and am now ready to migrate my 2TB of data from my old server (fedora with NTFS drive) on to OMV. I think rsync is the way to go here but I'm having some trouble with it. Both servers have SSH access and both have rsync on them. I've read some threads in this forum and understand that OMV's rsync GUI is not interactive so cannot handle passwords.
I've uploaded OMV's public key to my old fedora server and tested an rsync job using the GUI. The job is configured as a 'pull' from the remote fedora server but I am using the password option. I cannot select anything under the passphrase option so didn't use that. It looks like it can login and connect to that fedora server but the job breaks down pretty quickly with an error about broken pipes and another one about file attributes not being transferred.
I've tried to find a guide or thread that helps with this process but haven't come across any.
