Manage shares
A share is provided by file storage. You can give access to a share
to instances. To create and manage shares, you use manila
client commands.
Migrate a share
As an administrator, you can migrate a share with its data from one location to another in a manner that is transparent to users and workloads.
Possible use cases for data migration include:
- Bring down a physical storage device for maintenance without disrupting workloads.
- Modify the properties of a share.
- Free up space in a thinly-provisioned back end.
Migrate a share with the manila migrate command, as shown in the following
example:
$ manila migrate shareID destinationHost --force-host-copy True|FalseIn this example, --force-host-copy True forces the generic
host-based migration mechanism and bypasses any driver optimizations.
destinationHost is in this format host#pool
which includes destination host and pool.
Note
If the user is not an administrator, the migration fails.
