Transfer users local to users ldap

[wixaw]

Hi I wish migrate users local to users ldap. But if user exist, a new user is created with firstname.name_1234 id. How can I transfer our users ?

Thank you in advance

Any idea please ?

Create a new user in LDAP and sync the user with "occ user:sync", then use the "occ files:transfer-ownership" command to migrate the files to the new account.

Note that not everything will be migrated by this command.

There is currently no support for converting user accounts directly between backends. I heard some discussion about this lately but not sure if there are tickets for that yet @butonic

Thank's @PVince81 We have a special use of local user, they only have access to the files shared with them. Does the "occ files:transfer-ownership" command also synchronize the shares?

Thanks

the "occ files:transfer-ownership" also transfers outgoing user shares and public link shares. Not incoming shares.

Hello, I'm working on this migration again. I have owncloud 10.0.10 in production. When you say "Not incoming shares" you mean: not what is in the oc_share table with the share_with attribute? If so, it's a shame, it's exactly the function I need

I have managed to transfer most of my user accounts into an LDAP server using the attached script. Use at your own risk and make sure you have backups
