  • determining a migration plan for the file system migration, the migration plan mapping each of (i) a set of file system objects from the source file system to a corresponding set of file system objects at the destination file system, and (ii) a source policy collection for the set of file system objects to a destination policy collection for the corresponding set of file system objects as the destination file system, wherein the migration plan includes a set of parameters that are based at least in part on an operator input; and

    implementing the migration of the file system objects using the migration plan, the migration plan specifying, for at least a first object container of the corresponding set of file system objects at the destination file system, at least one of a file contextual path, type, or policy implementation relating to the first object container, that is different as compared to a file path, type or policy implementation of a corresponding source object container of the set of file system objects of the source file system.
