Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Mike McCune 2016-10-04 18:50:43 UTC 
This migration is causing extreme customer pain in the duration it induces in the upgrade. While useful to have a singular storage location in /var/lib/pulp, the cost during the upgrade is too high and should be removed.

We are going to remove this step from the upgrade process and optionally add a utility script that can be run out-of-band if desired but not required for operation.

This should reduce the upgrade time significantly for upgrades from 6.1 to 6.2
Comment 2 Jeff Ortel 2016-10-14 20:32:58 UTC 
The upstream issue: https://pulp.plan.io/issues/2323#note-23 references an attached .patch file and the pulp.spec used to test it.

Comment 5 Jeff Ortel 2016-10-19 14:15:08 UTC 
jcalla,
The migration number is different for each plugin but the RPM migration (the most painful) is #28.  You should see "Standard storage path migration skipped." immediately following the skipped migration.
Comment 6 pulp-infra@redhat.com 2016-10-28 14:31:03 UTC 
The Pulp upstream bug status is at CLOSED - WONTFIX. Updating the external tracker on this bug.
Comment 7 pulp-infra@redhat.com 2016-10-28 14:31:06 UTC 
The Pulp upstream bug priority is at High. Updating the external tracker on this bug.
Comment 8 jcallaha 2016-11-05 20:07:52 UTC 
Verified in Satellite 6.2.4 Snap 2

Upgrade time: 30m 16s

Saw three instances of notifications that "Standard storage path migration skipped." During the pulp migrations listed below:
pulp_docker.plugins.migrations
pulp_puppet.plugins.migrations
pulp_rpm.plugins.migrations

Attaching full install log, a screencap of two of the notifications, as well as a diff of the filesystem structure from directly before and after the upgrade.
