Photo export from old server

Doing a sort of fresh install and just going to CLI re-upload photos from a dump of the old server not really "migration"

Though ran into an interesting issue. on the old immich server web ui > admin > server-status to confirm usage and photo / video count, noticed it's much more than what's in the actual directory on the server. In comparison when navigating the directories via CLI or GUI navigating to -- %Docker Directory% > Library > user the count is drastically different


THOUGH I think at one point I switched to the Storage Template which might be the cause, though how do I find the rest of the photos the Docker Directory > upload directory has some nonsense folders with various amounts of usage but nothing to add up to actual missing amount.

New server I started with the Storage Template Engine right away.

Thanks again team!
