AzCopy - include tables and queues

I used the AzCopy command to backup a Blob to a another account.

I am rather new to Azure storage, what I really want to do it move the whole storage account. This has Tables and Queues.

I am not clear is how dependent or independent the Tables and Queues are to the Blobs. Is there a way to move the whole thing, or do I have to copy the blobs then recreate the Tables and Queus

  1. AzCopy supports copying Blobs from one account to another:

    AzCopy.exe /source:https://youraccount1.blob.core.windows.net/srccontainer /sourceKey:key1 /dest:https://youraccount2.blob.core.windows.net/destcontainer /destKey:key2 /s

    AzCopy by default uses server-side asynchronous copy, which doesn't have an SLA on copy speed. If you'd like to achieve consistent copy speed, please consider adding option /SyncCopy to the command line above. For further information of /SyncCopy, please refer to: AzCopy – Introducing synchronous copy and customized content type.

  2. AzCopy supports downloading a Table to local disk and uploading it to another account:

    AzCopy.exe /source:https://youraccount1.table.core.windows.net/srctable /sourceKey:key1 /dest:d:\localfolder /manifest:yourfilename /splitSize:128
AzCopy.exe /source:d:\localfolder /dest:https://youraccount2.table.core.windows.net/desttable /destKey:key2 /manifest:yourfilename /entityOperation:InsertOrReplace

    If you'd like to achieve better table downloading performance and you do know how the partition keys are arranged in your source table, you can specify option /PKRS in the command line to download table.

  3. AzCopy doesn't support copying Queues.
