The sync agent might still work if there are no overlapping buckets. You'll need to add both clusters as zones in the same region, create a system user that will exist on both, and set the agent to do a full sync from A to B. The only thing I'm not sure is whether the sync agent will try to remove stuff from B as it doesn't exist on A. I don't think it'll do it, but it's better be safe than be sorry. Josh, do you see an issue there?
