# Script Usage

```bash
# Test (small batch)
node r2-to-glacier-streaming.js -b pollinations-text --batch-size 100 --max-batches 1

# Full transfer
node r2-to-glacier-streaming.js -b pollinations-text --batch-size 50000 --concurrency 30

# Resume after interruption
node r2-to-glacier-streaming.js -b pollinations-text --resume

# Dry run (count only)
node r2-to-glacier-streaming.js -b pollinations-text --dry-run
```

---

# AWS Setup

- **Bucket**: `s3://pollinations-archive`
- **Region**: us-east-1
- **Storage Class**: DEEP_ARCHIVE

## Verify Archives

```bash
aws s3 ls s3://pollinations-archive/ --recursive --human-readable | head -20
```

---

# Important Notes

- ⚠️ **180-day minimum** on Glacier Deep Archive - don't delete R2 until verified!
- Some objects fail with "Header overflow" (very large responses) - acceptable loss
- Text bucket (1.86B objects) takes several days
- R2 egress is free, AWS ingress is free

---

# Start Images Bucket (After Text Complete)

1. Update `~/r2-glacier/run-text-transfer.sh` on ninon:
   ```bash
   # Change bucket name
   node r2-to-glacier-streaming.js -b pollinations-images --batch-size 50000 --concurrency 30
   ```

2. Start new screen:
   ```bash
   ssh ninon "screen -dmS r2-images bash -c '~/r2-glacier/run-images-transfer.sh; exec bash'"
   ```
