Migrating selected data from Sparc (Duo V1) to x86 (312):
As per title.
Would anyone have a recommendation for a guide (or other tools) for someone in my situation? I'm guessing it all involves some rsync action and I'm ok with command line stuff but more automated solutions are appreciated too.
Or does another method deserve consideration?
My original Duo is working and 1TB (standard Raid X). 312 is brand new with two new 3TB drives.
Many thanks.

Thanks. Duo only has one user - admin - so I don't *think* I'm using homeshares option.
If you were, you'd have data in an "admin" folder on the NAS.
Is there a newbies guide for Rsync? I'm looking at : http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/29929/~/readynas-os-6%3A-setting-up-a-backup-job-with-rsync-over-ssh
Should I be looking to pull data from the 312? or push from the Duo?
You don't need rsync-over-ssh for this - just ordinary rsync.
I'd pull data from the RN312.
Just enable rsync on the duo (for each share).
Create the corresponding shares on the RN312
Create a backup job on the RN312, with a remote source and local destination.
Specify the IP address of the duo as the source host, and the sharename as the source path. Select the destination sharename from the pulldown.
Try "test connect" and then run the backup.

The easiest way is to enable rsync on the duo shares, and create rsync backup jobs on the RN312. I suggest one backup job per share.
If you are using the "home share" feature of the duo v1, then it's best to download that data to a PC (perhaps using drag and drop), and then connect to the RN312 and upload.
Thanks. Duo only has one user - admin - so I don't *think* I'm using homeshares option.
