Hi everybody,
I have been using the wonderful Plex for several years on a DIY server, where I installed OpenMediaVault 5.
I installed Plex on a docker container and until last week I never had any problems, it always worked perfectly.
A few days ago, however, the SSD on which was installed OMV failed, I had to buy a new one and I reinstalled OMV6, with Plex and other containers.
Obviously I lost all the libraries that I had organized over the years according to my needs.
Since I managed to recover the config/plex/library folder from the old failed SSD, I wanted to know if there is a way to recover the old libraries in the new Plex.
Tanks and sorry for my bad english (google translator).
If you still have the PMS data folder basically all you need to is put them in the proper location and reinstall PMS which will read the same folders. Make sure paths to media files are the same as they were on previous install
Thanks very match, BigWheel, now all it’s perfectly, as the old Plex. Thanks thanks and thanks.
A last request, please, how I can make a periodically backup of all my libraries?
Thanks and ciao
The database file is backed up evey three days in case it is corrupted. As far as everything else there is no built in mechanism. Every once and a while shut down PMS and copy the entire PMS folder. I can’t personally recommend any particular apps to do that automatically. I’ve never done a back up of the entire thing myself…
