    Description

      Hi,

      In our last data migration efforts involving 50 OSS servers, we observed slow migration speeds even though we used a lot of concurrent threads with the lfs_migrate command. To address this, we switched to the cp and mv methods later, which greatly enhanced our migration speed.

      The migration command we initially used is as below:

      lfs find --ost ost_name /mount/point | lfs_migrate -y

       

      As we prepare for our next migration task, I'd like to know if there are better migration methods we haven't considered yet.

      Thank you for your guidance,

      Jane
