Easily move Synology packages from 1 volume to another volume
Synology app mover
Description
Easily move Synology packages from one volume to another volume
You just select the package and the destination volume and the script will stop the app, move it, update the symlinks then start the app.
Handy for moving packages to an SSD volume, or to another volume so you can delete the original volume.
- Supports DSM 7. Not tested with DSM 6.
Packages confirmed working
NOTE: Some people have reported issues moving Container Manageer. Backup your docker compose files of portainer stacks.

Download the script
- Download the latest version Source code (zip) from https://github.com/007revad/Synology_app_mover/releases
- Save the download zip file to a folder on the Synology.
- Unzip the zip file.
To run the script
How to enable SSH and login to DSM via SSH
sudo -s /volume1/scripts/syno_app_mover.sh
Note: Replace /volume1/scripts/ with the path to where the script is located.
Troubleshooting
If the script won't run check the following:
- Make sure you download the zip file and unzipped it to a folder on your Synology (not on your computer).
- If the path to the script contains any spaces you need to enclose the path/scriptname in double quotes:
sudo -s "/volume1/my scripts/syno_app_mover.sh" - Make sure you unpacked the zip or rar file that you downloaded and are trying to run the syno_app_mover.sh file.
- Set the script file as executable:
sudo chmod +x "/volume1/scripts/syno_app_mover.sh"
