Allow Ops Manager users to move/migrate backup job snapshots from one S3 bucket to a different S3 bucket
Ops Manager users with S3 blockstores may need to move snapshots and backup jobs to a new S3 bucket. For MongoDB blockstores, this is accomplished using a groom.
Move Blocks to a Different Blockstore
https://docs.opsmanager.mongodb.com/current/core/administration-interface/#groom-priority-page
This feature request is to provide the same feature to groom backup snapshots/jobs to a new bucket for S3 blockstores.

This is definitely a weakness. I can understand that moving from a MongoDB snapshot storage to n S3 storage comes with challenges, but moving from an S3 to another S3 should not be that complicated.

We would like to see the ability to "migrate" from an existing S3 storage to new S3 storage. Currently, when we create new S3 buckets for storing snapshots we can only make use of it when we terminate the existing backup stored in the "old" S3 bucket. This means we delete all existing backups before we can use the new S3 snapshot storage, which is considered very high risk. We must keep backups for up to few months and cannot delete them just to move to a new S3 backup storage. It would be very good to be able to make use of the new storage without having to delete the existing backup data.
