Relocating a storage node to new hardware

Software-only customers who use their own storage may sometimes need to relocate a storage node to new hardware (for example, when there is a need for more space and better performance).

Requirements

The new hardware must meet the storage node installation requirements. It can run the same operating system as the source hardware or a different one (as long as it is supported).

Instructions

In short, the migration process looks in the following way.

First, copy the data to the new hardware. Next, stop the storage node service. Third, copy the remaining data to the new hardware. Lastly, install the storage node to the new hardware

Please follow step-by-step instructions for your operating system.
