I'm trying to migrate kvstore on a v8.2 installation on Windows, but it fails early in the process.
splunk migrate kvstore-storage-engine --target-engine wiredTiger
ERROR: Cannot get the size of the KVStore folder at=E:\Splunk\Indexes\kvstore\mongo,
due to reason=3 errors occurred. Description for first 3: [{operation:"failed to stat file",
error:"Access is denied.", file:"E:\Splunk\Indexes\kvstore\mongo"},
{operation:"failed to stat file", error:"Access is denied.",
file:"E:\Splunk\Indexes\kvstore\mongo"}, {operation:"failed to stat file",
error:"Access is denied.", file:"E:\Splunk\Indexes\kvstore\mongo"}]
I've tried to do file operations on the folder and subfolders of E:\spunk\indexes\kvstore\mongo and everything seems ok.
The mongod.log does not contain any rows from the migration.
Any nudges in the right direction? Can I upgrade to 9.1 without migrating the store?
I started using Process Monitor from SysInternals to see what files the migration tool had problems with and when I fixed permissions on those the problem was fixed.
