Moving PMS from Synology to Linux Ubuntu

OK… guess I may have gotten a little too swoopy. DRATS!

Back to normal mode: :frowning:

To move your media to the IronWolf drives and then rsync to the Syno (still cool :slight_smile: )

  1. Do all the appropriate copying.
  2. Take the “Move PMS’ Library” procedure (link below) and use the Synology’s Plex/Library as the source. Your Linux box will be the new system.
  3. Since you’re also changing media location, you’ll want my other piece (move data and keep the metadata)

To move PMS’ Library (or clone - which is what we’re doing here)
with one caveat. You can use ZIP from DSM. Any way to bring that file over to Linux will work.
(Backup on the Syno - Restore into /var/lib/plexmediaserver)

To move where the media is located.
