Migrating data between repositories in DCE

jzurera · ‎2024-03-12

Hi team,

is it possible to migrate data from a remote repository to the local server? There is an option to "Migrate to Remote" but not in the other way. With the remote repository reports work very slow, and we would like to move the data from the remote repository to the local server adding an additional virtual disk.

Hi @jzurera,

I am not aware of any way to migrate from remote storage back to local, just local to remote storage. I have relayed your concern over to our product manager for DCE to be considered as a possible future enhancement to the software.

I recommend as a start to uncheck the Use Remote Storage Only checkbox on the Repositories Tab of Storage Settings so that the server starts storing new data on the server itself, which over time would help with the speed of the report as usually reports are run for short term time-frames over the last month(s) to year.

Regards,

Cory
