StorageGrid NAS Bridge Migration (Unsupported)
Channel: scaleoutSean

This is TOTALLY UNsupported but ... for what it's worth:

- Create recovery package on NAS Bridge 1
- Unmount NFS shares, shut down NAS Bridge 1
- Sync files to remote StorageGRID
- Stand up new NAS Bridge 2, and restore recovery package from NAS Bridge 1
- Before accessing NAS Bridge 2, take over NFS filesystem ID (e.g. 1) by promoting NAS Bridge to Primary NAS Bridge for it, and change StorageGRID S3 IP, port (if different) and credentials

WARNING: I've found that this approach to be very brittle - sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, and sometimes it works but only until you reboot NAS Bridge, after which NFS exports do not come up. 
Again, this is not supported, so it's not unexpected either. It is probably easiest to stand up another NAS Bridge and use NetApp CloudSync or NetApp XCP or some file-based synchronization tool to replicate data over and not waste time on trying to perfect an unsupported procedure... I tried so that you don't have to...

Supported way: stand up another NAS Bridge and use a file sharing client-side utility (rsync, RoboCopy, NetApp XCP, NetApp CloudSync or something else) to synchronize data. See that video (example for NFS) here: https://youtu.be/RGlgnRcf2cM
