Hi, Decommissioning of primary storage should not be a problem. Since we can migrate all the disks to additional primary storage in the cluster. Coming to artifacts stored in the secondary storage, if we make the templates as public, all the templates will be available in additional secondary storages within the zone. For snapshots and volumes may have to rsync and change the image_store id in all the relevant db tables.
