For example with EC pools : “error > > copying pool testpool => newpool: (95) Operation not supported”." I suppose it is for the case when migrating from a replicated pool to EC pool. EC pools does not support omap, so you can not copy objects with omap values (like rbd image metadata) to EC pool. I think it should work when copying data from EC pool to EC pool, but I would consider some other way, as `rados cppool` is usually not recommended. Depending on what application the pool is used for (rbd, rgw, cephfs) you may use the native aplication tools for migration. E.g. for rbd I would recommend `rbd migration` if you are on Nautilus. For mimic there is `rbd deep copy`. For earlier versions you could use `rbd copy` or the combination of `rbd clone` + `rbd flatten`, but you can not copy snapshots this way. "Using Cache Tier" way will not work for your case as EC pool can not be usead as cache tier. It can be used only when migrating from a replicated pool (to another replicated pool or EC pool). -- Mykola Golub _______________________________________________ Dev mailing list -- dev@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to dev-leave@xxxxxxx
