I have a large 16TB raid file server that has a bad hard drive and it won't rebuilt. I'm able to access the file system with a live CD but I'm just wondering whats the best and quickest way to transfer files to another linux server. The server is running centos 7 and I'm connected to it via KVM.I have had the datacenter set-up a new server identical to the current on beside this one and they are connected via their second Ethernet ports.I read about Samba but I'm not sure if this is the best way. I've used rsync in the past for this type of process but perhaps there's a better solution.Also, how can I direct the transfer process to use the second ethernet port? This is my first time doing such a job.Thanks in advance.
