Revive procedure for moving tenants manually between safekeepers

Open arssher opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

Two use cases:

  1. Moving all tenants residing on one safekeeper to another.
  2. Move single tenant.

"Manually" means this is safe only as long as either 1) source safekeeper is reliably offline 2) or computes using it are reliably offline forever.

Needed steps:

  • [x] https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/6340
  • [x] https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/6341
  • [x] revive the script
