secrets move

The secrets move command moves an existing secrets engine to a new path. Any leases from the old secrets engine are revoked, but all configuration associated with the engine is preserved. The command can be issued for a move within or across namespaces, using namespace prefixes in the arguments.

The command will trigger a remount operation and uses the returned migration ID to poll the status of the operation until a terminal state of success or failure is reached.

warning

Moving an existing secrets engine will revoke any leases from the old engine.

warning

Before moving an engine to a new path, one should ensure it is currently not actively used. Using an engine while it's being moved will lead to inconsistent reads on standby nodes.

Examples​

Move the existing secrets engine at ns1/secret/ to ns2/kv/:

$ bao secrets move ns1/secret/ ns2/kv/

Usage​

There are no flags beyond the standard set of flags included on all commands.
