A shell script for Synology DSM that moves installed packages between volumes, handling stopping, moving, symlink updates, and restarting apps. It also supports backing up and restoring packages, including to USB drives.

Use cases

  • move Synology packages to an SSD volume
  • migrate apps off a volume I want to delete
  • backup Synology packages before reinstalling DSM
  • restore Synology apps from a backup
  • relocate Docker packages between NAS volumes

When to choose

  • you run Synology DSM 7 and need to relocate or back up installed packages
  • you want a simple interactive script instead of manual symlink surgery

When to avoid

  • you use non-Synology NAS hardware
  • you need a GUI tool or fully automated scheduled migration
  • you rely on DSM 6, which is not fully tested
