Did you unplug the USB-Disk while instaling OMV?
How did you back up?
it looks like the disk has been wiped.
No, I did not disconnect the disk. It has always remained connected.
I used to do the backup via MC.

How is this possible? I was backing up the RAID on it
I have this situation:
What partitions are on the disk:
fdisk -l /dev/sdg
fdisk -l /dev/sdg
Disk /dev/sdg: 3,7 TiB, 4000752599040 bytes, 7813969920 sectors
Disk model: Elements 25A1
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes
What happens if you click + in the filesystem view and then select mount?
It makes me choose which drive to create, if I select the USB disk it makes me format it, but I don't have to do that
Yes I know, but in the file system it does not appear.
In the 'Disks' section it is called /sdg, but the file system is not there!
I installed OMV on a new hard drive. I was able to mount the old RAID and see the folders and all the data.
I don't understand how to see the usb hard drive I started the backup on. If I recreate it in File System it formats it for me and I don't have to format it!
If the software is on a RAID array, the recommendations will not help.
If you system boots from an USB stick, make a basic install of OMV6 onto an USB stick, mount the raid, create a sahred folder and continue from there.
OMV is installed on a boot hd.
I'll try to see what I can do in the hope of succeeding.
Thanks
To be honest, I do not recal what the original problem was and am too lazy to read up this thread.
OMV fortmats disks with ext4 file system whic hcan be read on every linux system, so if you plug the drive in question (not the os disk) into a linux computer you can copy the contents of it.
Or you can try this tool to read the data on the ext4 disk from windows: https://www.diskinternals.com/linux-reader/ (never used it myself).
The problem was that the raid had stopped working. I had a broken sata cable and some damaged hds.
After several trials, thankful to your help, I managed to solve the problem with the raid and get the files backed up on a usb hd.
Now I still haven't finished backing up and it seems that the hd OMV is installed on is broken. But, as I said in the previous post, Windows seems to recognise it.
Now if possible I would like to copy the whole system to a new hd and resume the backup
I will try the software you recommended and let you know.
Here I am again guys.
So far I've been trying to save a copy of all the various files to hd. I had almost managed to complete the backup of all the most important files.
Unfortunately, however, it seems that the hd with the O.S. has failed.
The system rebooted but OMV no longer loads.
I tried connecting the hd via USB to the PC and Windows can see it, or at least it senses that there is an hd connected and asks me to format it.
I ask again: is it possible in case I can read the contents of this hd, to clone OMV to another hd and continue the backup?
OK, thanks. I'll try to use it.
I'm back. After a busy week, today I got back on track.
I decided to copy folder by folder using WinSCP. It will be a long job but at least I know it will be done.
There are some files that I can't copy in any way, probably damaged, but I can open them with the various video players or photo viewers. Is it possible that there's no way to force them to be copied?
The disks do not match at all! Has the target disk been empty before you did the rsync?
Yes, it was empty
root@NAS:~# /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-F48E91208E90DD04/Anna/CLUB ACADEMY
-bash: /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-F48E91208E90DD04/Anna/CLUB: No such file or directory

du: cannot access 'ACADEMY/': No such file or directory
Something is not working
Alles anzeigenTo be clear:
To do an rsync disk to disk mirror, the disk mount point is used followed by a "/"
For example:
/srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-F48E91208E90DD04/
I put the slash in the rsync command!
(If you mean this command)
rsync -av /srv/dev-disk-by-id-md-name-debian-Raid/ /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-F48E91208E90DD04/
Is Anna deleteing and creating files in her directory and you see this in the disk usage?
No one is operating on the Raid at this time.

why would you expect 2.4TB + 1 TB ofdata.
Actually, I don't expect 2.4 + 1 TB, but what the command du -xhd 1 /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-F48E91208E90DD04/
returns to me is different from what I actually see in the folders. The 2.3 TB must be divided between the "Anna" folder and the "Riccardo" folder. In the "Richard" folder there is about 1 TB.
And once you see, the used space decrease, do the same.
I'm sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean; could you please explain it again?
Is it possible, rsync has never executed properly and you are seeing the regular space usage changes in the directory Anna?
Sorry, I don't quite understand the question; can you explain what you mean, please? Thank you
Should have been du -xhd 1 /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-F48E91208E90DD04/ without the space.

There should be more than 1 TiB of data in the 'Riccardo' folder!
Do you have any services configured on that drive?
In the USB drive? No, no services.
I ran the command and this is the result:
This is the situation today with rsync working.
Compare this image with the one from a few days ago!
The backup disk keeps filling and emptying, filling and emptying.
At this point I think the only solution is to unplug usb backup driver!
Did you try deleting the mp4 file? If that file is the reason rsync gets stuck, deleting one file or even the folder and it's contents is worth a try. (Maybe try copying them to a client, before deleting them.)
Yes I deleted the file. I launched rsync and now it stays like this
No, there is a chance to destroy the drive.
So you will have to copy from the cli with the rsync command an be patient. Can you post the command, so we can check it and give hints how to run it even when disconnecting your laptop.
If you still have the rsync job running, you can check progress by tail -f /var/log/rsync.log. To stop the log output press ^C
After I've done this too:
- You might try deleting the "passion" MP4 . The file might be corrupted in a way that rsync can't handle.
I re-launched the command you can see below
and remains so indefinitely:
root@NAS:~# rsync -av /srv/dev-disk-by-id-md-name-debian-Raid/ /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-F48E91208E90DD04/
sending incremental file list
./
I also launched this one, but I can't see anything:
tail -f /var/log/rsync.log
