So I recently finished building a new UnRAID server, and I figured I’d try migrating my PMS database from my current Windows 10 box to Plex docker in UnRAID. I did everything right: disabled “empty trash”, signed out of PMS, exported the Plex registry values, ZIPped the database folder, copied that archive to the new machine, did all the requisite docker setup. First time booting up Plex after the database migration showed all my libraries, files, posters, thumbnails, watch status, etc.
However, since the previous database was on a Windows machine, all the path information for the libraries follows the typical network path standard (e.g. \\SERVERNAME\Media\Movies), but the UnRAID docker needs to see the files inside its own system (e.g. /media/Movies).
I’m wondering if I can locate an .xml or .cfg file somewhere in the UnRAID database files that shows me those network paths in a text string; then, execute a search and replace function to replace those incorrect path strings with the correct ones. Is this possible? What file would I be looking for? If I can do that, I’ll be golden!
