Thomas Mueller commented on JCR-1517:
-------------------------------------

I'm wondering if it still makes sense to solve this, or if it's better to use a 
the repository migration as documented in 
http://wiki.apache.org/jackrabbit/BackupAndMigration

> Global datastore and namespace index cause problems when migrating workspaces

> Issue JCR-669 introduced a global namespace index. this is used by some 
> persistence managers in order to
> keep the serialization of names small (fewer bytes).
> unfortunately this forms a problem when a workspace needs to be migrated to 
> another repository with other namespace indexes. so an easy migration is not 
> possible unless you export/import the entire workspace using system view 
> (which is almost impossible for huge workspaces).
> another potential problem is cause by the global data store, since all 
> workspaces share the same.
> so when migrating a workspace, you would need to transfer all respective 
> records in the datastore to the target repository.
> where the datastore problem can be solved by copying the respective items, 
> the namespace indexes are a bigger problem, since the serialized items need 
> to be adjusted.
> suggest to alter the bundle pm to use the 'name index' for the namespaces as 
> well.
