GitLab and Storage

[Gal Schlezinger]

Hey guys.

I was trying to move my organization's GitLab repos from SAN storage to NAS storage. mainly because the price tag difference and the backup plans my organization provides.

The docs say it should work OK, but the Automatic Merging isn't working.

the only way to achieve the automerge is by moving the satellites to a SAN storage.

Is there something I miss?

Is removing old "satellites" (caching and removing the unused) could be a better way to look at satellites? Storage is expensive and we just duplicate the repos for nothing.

Thanks!

Hi Gal.

We understand that storage is expensive, but unfortunately you do need the satellites. If you remove them, GitLab should recreate them; but moving them is also an option.
