Daniel,

Ok, I see. And how can I migrate from unify to DHT then? I already has
many files distributed trough 24 nodes. It will be rather problematic
to backup them all, remove unifed volumes, create DHT volumes and
restore files. Is it possible to just replace unify to dht without
touching backend?

Best wishes,
  Andrey
