Removing Additional Secondary Storage
Hi team,
We have two secondary storages on our in-production cloudstack. Also, it's
not new secondary storage. We currently have two, and want to remove the
second (so we only have the first). We have rsync'd all data from the 2nd
secondary storage to the 1st, and just verified that nothing new has been
placed on the 2nd:
root@XXXX:~# rsync -av /mnt/secondary2/ /mnt/secondary1/
sending incremental file list
sent 2,946 bytes received 40 bytes 5,972.00 bytes/sec
total size is 119,738,306,443 speedup is 40,099,901.69
What would be the best option to delete secondary storage2 ? We are
planning to do this by updating the references in the database.
Any suggestions?
Regards,
Imran

I sucessfully removed the secondary storage. I have uploaded the detailed steps performed on my blog at http://eaxiom.net/cloudstack/manually-mirgating-data-from-one-secondary-storage-to-another-so-to-freeup-a-seondary-storage/ so that it could be helpful for someone in need.
Thanks,

Appropriate update of references in image_store table should be good enough.
