Migrate users between storage zones
ShareFile offers a variety of storage options, including Citrix-managed cloud storage in multiple worldwide locations in addition to storage that you manage with storage zones controller. The User Management Tool enables you to migrate users, based on their membership in Active Directory (AD) groups or Organizational Units (OUs), between storage zones.
-
In the User Management Tool, select the Zones tab.
-
In the Active Directory listing, select the group or OU containing the users you want to migrate. A list of AD users who already have accounts appears.
The group or OU that you select does not need to correspond to an existing rule. You have the option to remove individual users from the selection.
-
Choose a storage zone from the menu above the list of users. The User Management Tool selects each user who is not already in the zone you chose.
-
As needed, change the user selection by selecting or clearing individual check boxes. To clear all check boxes, select Clear All.
-
To start the migration, select Apply.
The User Management Tool schedules the data migration and lets you know that the zone has been changed for the user accounts. The data migration is transparent to users and can take days or weeks to complete, depending on the amount of data.
