Transfer full s3 from one account to another | Moving Large S3 Files using dataSync Across Account

[@WilliamVirkin]

this video explain WAY BETTER than the official documentation in AWS and also that documentation has a lot of inconsistency.

[@reemdawg5980]

Hello @Jawad, from which account is the 'aws datasync create-location' being run from, in which account will the location appear?

[@fahadsayed6933]

works like a charm! .. thank you very much. It saved me a lot of time.

[@KarimiGE]

hello @Jawad, why do the bucket ACLs need to be disabled?

[@BeSavage177]

Thanks for this!! Does this support accounts across different organizations so data can be transferred to various clients if needed?

[@jdkDevelopmentOfficial]

Yes it does!

[@moforel]

Great Video! Is it possible to use datasync to transfer only objects with a specific tag? If so how?

[@ravitejanimma3831]

I have followed your steps, and faced same error. "DataSync location access test failed: could not perform s3:HeadBucket on bucket Access denied. Ensure bucket access role has s3:ListBucket permission."

[@АняОсипчик]

not the best approach, but instead of using IAM role/ IAM user i used root user and instead of this string "arn:aws:iam::DIST_ACCOUNT_ID:user/distention_account_logged_in_user" try this: "arn:aws:iam::DIST_ACCOUNT_ID:root", this worked for me

[@tharunyarramreddy4183]

@@АняОсипчик if we dont have root user what is the alternative approach

[@AasthaKasera]

@@АняОсипчик Thanks a lot, this worked for me.

[@KarimiGE]

hello @Jawad, which permissions does the logged in user needs to have?

[@jdkDevelopmentOfficial]

Mostly bucket and users permissions

[@Deix25]

Thank you! You saved us hours!

[@arsaphone]

Hi sir,
this policy wont do anything harm to source s3 right? for example the source bucket cannot be accessible bcs the policy

[@jdkDevelopmentOfficial]

No there's nothing harm this policy is not for public It's for specific entity.

[@AriefRakhmanSaputra]

Hi @jdkDevelopmentOfficial I followed your steps, but I got an error
DataSync location access test failed: could not perform s3:GetObject in bucket source11. Access denied. Ensure bucket access role has s3:GetObject permission.

[@jawadali7728]

Make sure you have get files permission in source account.

i put "s3:GetObject", in the firts statement on the source role and works

[@bakhodiryakubov3981]

Can you move from Acccount1 West region to Account2 East region as well?

[@DanielRocha-y7v]

How is the EFS to EFS procedure between different accounts?

Hi!
can you please help i am getting this error while creating task : last step of the video

[@munchback9006]

i need to allow full access on datasync of source account to my cli user ?

[@jdkDevelopmentOfficial]

No need for full access but I think you're missing S3:ListBucket permission.

[@anubhavbiswas4142]

Does this feature involves cost? If I want to move millions of objects to another AWS account, will this incur any cost?

[@jdkDevelopmentOfficial]

Yes, It's costing but not too much you can find more details in their pricing module.

[@anubhavbiswas4142]

[@durantapatra443]

how to transfer 1GB single file ?

[@jdkDevelopmentOfficial]

You can transfer 1GB file using"aws sync" using aws cli.

[@siriusleto3758]

If you use MFA it will be more complicated. They never explain it in the tutorial.
