Created attachment 1982419 [details] StageBackup screen capture Description of problem: During MTC Cutover migration with IndirectVolumeMigration, IndirectImageMigration. Pods on the source cluster are not quiesced. The StageBackup, always fails with this error in the logs when PV/PVC is being backed up. ``` Lchown: lchow /host_pods/some-uuid/volumes/kubernetes.io~csi/pvc-some-uid/mount/mongodb/data/db/index-xxx operation not permitted ignoring error for /mongodb/data/db/index-xxx ``` This error is repeated for many (maybe all) files. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): The source (OCP4.8) and target (OCP4.12+) clusters use AWS EFS for storage. MTC v1.7.10 is running on both clusters. How reproducible: It is reproducible. I just cleanup whatever was migrated (namespace, pvc,..), recreate the MigPlan and run a Cutover migration. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Ensure source and target clusters are using AWS EFS with dynamic volume provisioning 2. Ensure MTC v1.7.10 is installed and configured on source (OCP4.8) and target (OCP4.12+) clusters 3. Create MigPlan with PVCs selected 4. Run Cutover/Stage migration with source pods in Running state Actual results: StageBackup sub-steps (PodVolumeBackup) fail with the error log shared above for every file MTC fails to backup. Expected results: PVC migration should succeed using MTC, the customer wants to be able use this for batched migrations of their apps. The alternative will require static volume provisioning with AWS DataSync for data copy. Additional info: Here's an article briefly discussing the need for MTC to support chown. - https://github.com/konveyor/eng-kbase/blob/master/content/posts/mtc-pv-uid-gid-prereqs.md - https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/aws-efs-csi-driver/issues/300
