Change Storage Path of a single user

No, my question was clear from the beginning:
“is there a way to transfer user-Data from one storage path to another via OCC command.”

you did refer to cp & ln -sf on user base, right, left out all the stuff with the database … I was referring - in general - to the “cp & ln -s” commands in relation to data migrations.

I think the Nextcloud Admin context clearly shows that there is also a database reference, because each file has to be referenced via database with the storage path.

I had once done exactly that many years ago after a hardware change (for testing purposes) - only changed the data directory in config.php and saw that the gui could no longer access various files because the database had referenced a different path.

have a look to this threat (and they are many of them) →

Again my question was really ONLY related to OCC → can i move the same user to another storage path.

sudo -u www-data php occ files:transfer-ownership --path=“path_to_dir”

Normally this command is intended using for two different users … i was just wondering, if this works with the same user …

but it may also be that my question is too hypotethical … I will test it out
