Admin tooling for local->object Primary Storage migrations
Source: nextcloud/server#63084 · opened by @joshtrichards
Admin tooling for local->object Primary Storage migrations: While migrating to another instance is straightforward if both use local (host filesystem mounted) storage, this is not the case if there is a desire to convert *Primary Storage* to Object Storage on the target instance.
When a deployment is using traditional local *Primary Storage* and wants to transition to using Object Storage as *Primary Storage*, the mechanics are more than merely challenging: there is no clear path that doesn't involve both an out-of-band data migration *and* loss of all existing metadata (ownership, shares, etc.)
