Moving files to archive
Hi,
I have a requirement to archive files in one storage account ( which is in premium blob storage hot tier ). I need to move the files to another storage account which is general purpose V2 with default storage account access tier set as cool.
If I move the files from sa1 to sa2 and then run a script to move the file to archive tier within sa2, will it incur any additional costs? Is it possible to copy and set the tier as archive in one go ?
