# TrueMigration # TrueMigration
A Python CLI tool for migrating SMB and NFS share configuration to a live TrueNAS destination system. Designed for systems integration teams working in pre-production deployment environments. A Python CLI tool for migrating TrueNAS configuration to a live destination system. Designed for systems integration teams working in pre-production deployment environments.
## What It Does ## What It Does
TrueMigration reads share configuration from a source and re-creates it on a destination TrueNAS system via its WebSocket API. Two source types are supported: TrueMigration reads configuration from a source and re-creates it on a destination TrueNAS system via its WebSocket API. It also provides a destination audit mode for inspecting and cleaning up existing configuration before migration.

- **CSV files** — customer-supplied spreadsheets for migrating from non-TrueNAS sources - **CSV files** — customer-supplied spreadsheets for migrating from non-TrueNAS sources
**Currently supported:** **Supported migration types:**
- SMB shares - SMB shares
- NFS exports - NFS exports
- iSCSI (extents, initiator groups, portals, targets, target-extent associations)
**Planned:**
- iSCSI (targets, extents, portals, initiator groups)

At startup the wizard presents two top-level options:
```
1. Migrate configuration to a destination system
2. Audit destination system (view and manage existing config)
```
#### Option 1 — Migrate
Walks through:
1. Source selection (archive or CSV)
2. Destination host, port, and API key
3. Migration scope (SMB / NFS / iSCSI, or all)
4. iSCSI portal IP remapping (destination IPs differ from source; MPIO supported)
5. Check for existing iSCSI config — offers to remove it before migration
6. Per-share selection (choose a subset or migrate all)
7. Dry run preview — shows what will be created, flags missing datasets or zvols
8. Optional auto-creation of missing datasets and zvols
9. Final confirmation and live apply
#### Option 2 — Audit
Connects to the destination and displays a full inventory:
- SMB shares (name, path, enabled status)
- NFS exports
- iSCSI configuration (extents, initiators, portals, targets, associations)
- ZFS datasets (with space used)
- ZFS zvols (with allocated size)
After displaying the inventory, offers selective deletion by category. Deletion safeguards:
- SMB shares / NFS exports / iSCSI: standard `[y/N]` confirmation
- Zvols: requires typing `DELETE` — data is permanently destroyed
- Datasets: requires typing `DELETE` — all files and snapshots are permanently destroyed
- A final confirmation gate is shown before any deletions execute

## iSCSI Migration Notes
iSCSI configuration involves relational objects with IDs that differ between systems. TrueMigration handles this automatically:
- **Creation order**: extents and initiator groups first (no dependencies), then portals, then targets (which reference portals and initiators), then target-extent associations
- **ID remapping**: old source IDs are mapped to new destination IDs as each object is created; downstream objects are updated accordingly
- **Portal IPs**: the wizard prompts for destination IP addresses for each portal. Enter multiple space-separated IPs for MPIO configurations
- **Zvols**: DISK-type extents reference ZFS zvols. The dry run checks whether the required zvols exist on the destination. If any are missing, the wizard prompts for their size and creates them before the live run
- **Existing config**: if the destination already has iSCSI objects, the wizard detects this and offers to remove them before migration begins
## Conflict Policy ## Conflict Policy
TrueMigration never overwrites or deletes existing configuration on the destination. Conflicts are silently skipped: TrueMigration never overwrites or deletes existing configuration on the destination. Conflicts are skipped:

## Safety Notes ## Safety Notes
- SSL certificate verification is disabled by default, as TrueNAS systems commonly use self-signed certificates. Use `--verify-ssl` to enable it. - **Never destructive by default** — the migration path only creates, never modifies or deletes existing destination config
- The tool targets the TrueNAS 25.04+ WebSocket API endpoint (`wss://<host>/api/current`). - **Dry run first** — always preview with `--dry-run` before applying changes
- Exit code `2` is returned if any errors occurred during migration. - **Audit deletions require explicit confirmation** — zvol and dataset deletion requires typing `DELETE` and a final confirmation gate
