Migrating Amahi 6 (Fedora 14) to Amahi 8

I've just migrated from Amahi 6 (Fedora 14) to Amahi 8.

I followed the guide in:
https://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/Reconn ... orage_pool
for the Greyhole setup, mounting the old data drives to the same mount points as before, then using Greyhole UI to set up the shares and storage pool exactly as my old setup.

When I run fsck, I get the following message for thousands of files:
WARNING! No copies of this file are available in the Greyhole storage pool.

Everything seems to work fine apart from those error messages.

Any suggestions to what could cause this?

Thanks.

Did you recreate all shares exactly as they were before?

Does the greyhole.conf file match the previous install?

I would focus on ensuring all the shares and settings are pretty much the same as they were previously. Then check file ownership/permissions as well.

Yes, I've triple checked that all the settings are the same, greyhole.conf etc.

Can you help me understand exactly what this
WARNING! No copies of this file are available in the Greyhole storage pool.
message means, so I can trouble shoot further?
Is it that a metadata file exists in the landing zone folders that points to a file in the gh-folders that don't exist?

As far as permissions go, I did the
chown -R 1stadminuser:users /var/hda/files chmod -R g+w /var/hda/files
from the wiki, this should be enough?

Thanks
