Cool!! So modifying my list a little bit following your last comment...
*The internal replication way* Set maintenance mode in the new shard's owner Modify the shards map to ensure the new shard is considered Let the internal replication process catch up Remove maintenace flag And if you want to actually reclaim back disk space on the previous location... Modify the shards map to remove the shard from the old location Manually remove the file. Restart couch so that references held to that file are cleared. *The rsync way* Rsync the shard, make sure the file has 770 permissions and belongs to couchdb user and group (couchdb:couchdb usually) Follow the internal replication way procedure How does it look? Does it worth for me to publish it somewhere with a few commands/screenshots for the community? Would you add/modify/delete anything? Thanks a lot for your input!
