I'm trying to move a directory to another directory within the merger fs, but it's running like it's a copy command instead, it's taking forever for only 203 subdirectories.
/srv/mergerfs/filesystem# mv torrents/Movies/ data/torrents/Movies
Did I run my command wrong, is there a better command to run? Is it running like a copy because mergerfs is technically a merger of multiple drives?
Edit:
When I ran this command previously by mistake it was near instantaneous:
/srv/mergerfs/filesystem# mv Movies torrents/Movies
Edit2:
I was able to figure out, but still not quite understand, that the files all existed on one drive, and were trying to move to another drive with the mv command, so that's why it was copying. Probably something to do with how I created folders or idk.
Solution was move the files inside the drive it's self, not through mergerfs.
