How do I switch smartstore to a backup object store? I'm considering using an on-premises S3 object store and keeping it in sync with an AWS S3 object storage. If my local object store fails, how to I switch to the AWS S3 object store?

I'm considering using an on-premises S3 object store for warm buckets and keeping it in sync with an AWS S3 object store, external to Splunk. If my local object store fails, how do I switch to the AWS S3 object store? Is it as simple as changing the path parameters and restarting the indexers? The context is disaster recovery.
