#### Migration of Working Data from Old Filesystems `ssd`, `beegfs`, and `scratch`
Please follow this instructions for transferring you data from `ssd`, `beegfs` and `scratch` to the
new filesystems. The instructions and examples are divided by the target not the source filesystem.
In the following, we will provide instructions for the data transfer of your old working data to the
new filesystems `/data/horse` and `/data/walrus` with comprehensive examples.
Please **do not copy your entire work data** from the old to the new filesystems, but consider this
opportunity for cleaning up your data. E.g., it might make sense to delete outdated scripts, old log
files, etc., and move other files, e.g., results, to the `/data/walrus` filesystem. Thus, please
take your time and make a plan which directories and files need to be transferred to `/data/horse`
and which to `/data/walrus`. Therefor, the following instructions and examples are divided by the
target not the source filesystem.
This migration task requires a preliminary step: You need to allocate workspaces on the
target filesystems.

Both `/data/horse/` and `/data/walrus` can only be used with
[workspaces](../data_lifecycle/workspaces.md). Before you invoke any data transer from the old
working filesystems to the new ones, you need to allocate a workspace first.
