[ome-users] OMERO: how to organize permanent storage?

[Kees Machielsen]

Hi Chris,

FYI, we are developing also an archive solution for Omero server together
with Perkin Elmer. 
This solution will enable OMERO users archive (automatically) all their data
as well as restore back projects/dataset randomly. 
We showed a proof of concept version on the OME meeting in Paris (see
attached flyer). 
Please let me know if this of interest to you.

Best regards, Kees Machielsen

Very much viable. Files can be moved from /OMERO/Pixels or /OMERO/Files
really however and whenever you like. OMERO does not directly do any of this
work for you so some effort will be required on your part to move data
between your repositories.

We're all certainly happy to help guide you through this as best we can.
