NS8 backups are working with the S3 compatible provider for Seaweedfs, Rustfs and Garage.

Rustfs provides a migration article: https://rustfs.dev/migrating-from-minio-to-rustfs-a-technical-guide/
Garage migration tutorial: https://cobalt.rocks/posts/garage/

Migration using mc in minio container is working. Same bucket(name) must exist on both sides.

mc alias set minio-old https://minioapi.domain.tld ACCESS_KEY SECRET
mc alias set rustfs-new https://rustfsapi.domain.tld ACCESS_KEY SECRET
mc mirror --dry-run minio-old/testbucket rustfs-new/testbucket
mc mirror --watch --overwrite minio-old/testbucket rustfs-new/testbucket

Migration to garage, rustfs and seaweedfs using mc is working!
