If there is an existing swift customer with swift account 'foo' and nova
project 'bar', there is no way to have them belong to the same Keystone
tenant.  I think that is the data migration issue.

Thanks, John, for pointing out the uuid thing :).  

So, let's say I have stored data into a Swift account with a UUID.  When I
switch to using Keystone, I would like to continue using my "old" account,
since I have a bunch of data in it.  However, the account format has changed
(under Keystone).  So, if I have lazy provisioning on (account_autocreate),
would I *accidentally* have 2 Swift accounts instead of one?  Ideally, if I
can "migrate" all the old account Ids to use the new format, that would
guarantee consistency between the old accounts and any newly-created
accounts.  Am I missing something here?

Swift treats the <hash> or <tenantid> part of the account as an opaque
string. (Technically, the first one isn't a hash but a uuid.) I don't think
there is any migration path because there is nothing to migrate.

But I may be missing something.

Under Keystone (with swift_auth and Swift's lazy provisioning), I see the
Swift account now has the format <reseller_prefix>_<tenantId>.  So, if we
have existing Swift account data with the old format, how would one go about
migrating from the old format to the Keystone format?  Is there a plan to do
so within the Diablo time-frame?
