How to switch file system

  • Hi, how do I switch the file-system on existing drives in OMV?


    I dont have the option to delete the partition under file systems and I assume wipe under hard drives also wont help.


    Do I have to remove all shared folders that are used for this drive first to swich file systems?


    The drive is now hfs+ and should be switched to ext4


    thanks in advance


    ps. I'm still running 0.5 (all updates applied with backports kernel)

  • Removing all shares worked, but if I want to reformat the drive as ext4 the following errors come up:


    Code
    Error #4000:
