Managing data transfers

After you create a data transfer, you can modify its certain parameters, stop and resume it, or delete it.

Prerequisites

Make sure that you are in a group that has at least the editor role within your tenant; for example, the default editors group. You can check this in the Administration → IAM section of the web console.

How to modify a data transfer

You can modify certain parameters of an existing data transfer:

Name
Credentials and object key prefixes for both the source and destination buckets
Transfer type or stop condition
Inter-iteration interval
Settings for handling destination objects
Limits on request rate and bandwidth

Changes may require several minutes to take effect, during which the old settings could still be in use temporarily. You cannot change the names or endpoints of the source and destination buckets of a data transfer. To modify a data transfer:

Web console
CLI
Terraform

In the sidebar, go to Object Storage → Data Transfer.
Open the page of the data transfer that you want to modify.
Switch to the Settings tab.
Modify the parameters and click Save changes.

Update the data transfer. For example, to change credentials for the source bucket in Nebius AI Cloud, run the following command:
```
nebius storage transfer update <data_transfer_ID> \
  --source-nebius-access-key-access-key-id <access_key> \
  --source-nebius-access-key-secret-access-key <secret_key>
```
For more information about the command parameters, see the command reference.

Modify the nebius_storage_v1_transfer resource in your Terraform configuration.
Check that the configuration is correct:
```
terraform validate
```
Apply the changes:
```
terraform apply
```

How to stop and resume a data transfer

When you stop a data transfer, all ongoing uploads of objects and their parts are canceled. When you resume a data transfer, it starts a new iteration.

Web console
CLI
Terraform

In the sidebar, go to Object Storage → Data Transfer.
Next to the name of the data transfer, click → Stop or Resume.
Confirm the action.

To stop the data transfer, run the following command:

nebius storage transfer stop <data_transfer_ID>

To resume the data transfer, run the following command:

nebius storage transfer resume <data_transfer_ID>

How to delete a data transfer

When you delete a data transfer, Object Storage stops it before deletion. Transferred objects are not affected.

Web console
CLI
Terraform

In the sidebar, go to Object Storage → Data Transfer.
Next to the name of the data transfer, click → Delete.
Confirm the action.

Delete the data transfer:

nebius storage transfer delete <data_transfer_ID>

Remove the corresponding nebius_storage_v1_transfer resource from the configuration file.
Check that the configuration is correct:
```
terraform validate
```
Apply the changes:
```
terraform apply
```
