Move a VERY big Bucket to another location

Postby madk » Fri May 07, 2010 3:28 pm

Hello,

i've got some buckets to move from .us to .eu location, and i'm wondering whether thats possible with Bucket Explorer.

The biggest Bucket has about 40.000.000 files in it, 4 TB in total.

Thanks,
Moritz

Hello,

Yes Bucket explorer supports the move operation of file(s) with in buckets located at different location.
As you have large amount of data so we suggest you to configure some advance preferences before performing Move operation.
Advance Preferences :
1. Select Tools -> Advance preferences option from Bucket Explorer Menu bar.
2. Set "Number of threads you want to run parallel in queue " to 100.
3. Set Quick Compare option as " Compare with Name and Size " and "Overwrite All".
4.Now select Transfer panel option from Tools -> Advance-> Transfer panel.
5. Now select source account at left side panel and select destination account at right side panel.(Both account either can be same or different) get log-in with these accounts.
6. Select source bucket (of us location) and list and select your Europe located bucket at destination side.
7. Simply click on move button(with red color) placed at middle panel.
The move operation will start in queue. all the files from your source bucket will move into your Europe located bucket and source bucket has been deleted.
