Migrate backups to new immutabliity mode

[HansA]

Prior to version 8 immutable M365 backups required 2 buckets on S3 object storage (one with versioning and one without). With v8 we should be able to use only one bucket. Is there a way to migrate the job from the old version to the new and eliminate the second bucket?

Not yet. While I cannot give an ETA, we will be working on some sort of migration tool to make (for example) a non-immutable repository immutable. However, we need to rewrite objects in a different format so it is not as simple as copy / paste.

You will see migration tools from us appear step-by-step, starting with Jet DB to Object Storage repository, then Object Storage to Object Storage, then with different settings between the repositories and so on...

Hi team,
Is there an ETA on this? Migrate the data to immutable repositories.

Thanks,
Regards.

Hi Hans

No ETA. First we have to release the new tool to migrate from local storage (jet-db) to non-immutable backup storage.
Migration to immutable targets is not expected soon.

Best,
Fabian
