Hi,
Installed is FreeBSD 10.1 on zfs-on-root (mirror of 2 ssd's) software raid using zfs.
New system is on raid10 on hardware raid (the images of vmware).
What is the best way to backup this existing system and restore it in a vm?
tar backup the 'old' FreeBSD while it is running?
Install fresh FreeBSD on VM and untar the backup??
Other suggestions??
Any help would be appreciated.
