Hi folks.

Is there a way around the "not allowed to create anymore apps;reached
app creation limit?" message when you are trying to migrate an app to
HRD? BTW, is there a way to keep the app id?

Migrating to HRD using the new migration tool will create an alias, so requests to the old app ID should go to the new one. You do still have to create a new application ID, however.

I've allocated a few more app IDs for your account. The current policy is that you can have up to 10 free applications and an unlimited amount of paid applications, but I think it's reasonable make exemptions on a case-by-case basis for people who have been using GAE for a long time who are migrating to HRD.

Thanks, Ikai. I'm migrating them now.

Will the aliases remain forever or will the -hrd ids be eventually
replaced by the original ones? Also, a couple apps were never deployed
- they are just names. Is it possible to change them to HRD apps
without going through the migration tool?

Hi Ikai,

Once an HRD migration is complete, is it possible to delete the original-MS-app but not loose the original-MS-app alias so requests are still sent to the new-HRD-app?

I'm not Ikai, but yes, it should work that way. However, you will lost all the historical data(admin logs, names of the versions, etc), so disabling the billing of the old app and the old app itself would suffice.

i have just migrated an app with 300GB of data.  is it possible to delete that data so i can disable billing for the app, or should i wait a few days to make sure i'm happy with the data in the new HRD app and then delete the application?  the datastore admin tools are disabled, so i can't bulk delete the data anyway.

what is the assurance from google that once i delete my old app the alias will remain?  it will be several months before i can get 99% of my URL references in the wild to be pointing at the new app (they are built into an iOS app that i will need to release an update for and get people to take the update), but i don't want to pay $3.00 a day twice to store my data in both systems.

thanks!

Hi Dmitry,

Which account you're using for app engine? I'm going to look into it.

Hi Nicholas,

Now you can create some more apps, can you try again?

I'm also running into the Migration limit due to having claimed 10 free app id's after learning to use Google App Engine.  

Adding permissions to have more id's on an account would fix this for me.   Not knowing how pervasive this issue is but a more graceful approach would have improved the user experience such as having the migration tool detect how many free apps the user has.  If the migration increases the number >10 allow +1 more up to and equal to 20.  Upon successful migration prompt to disable the non HRD accounts and eventually close the non HRD after a few weeks.  If the account has not been used it could bypass the migration need and just upgrade app to name-HDR and not need to add new accounts IMO.

Either way a fix for my account would be much appreciated. (I was over ambitious on the time I had to develop for all these accounts)  I'm just looking to take the names and move to name-HDR...

I am also running into this issue on my account (zmy...@gmail.com).  I still have apps I have not migrated because I do not want to delete any apps to make room for the new HRD app ids.

Try disabling a few of your apps and try migrating.  I found that as long as you have less than your limit active you can migrate then enable the migrated apps.

Oh, cool, that worked.  I did not realize at first that I could disable the M/S app id.
