[Enhancement]: aws_workspaces_workspace should support migration

[ruckc]

Description

Currently, if you change a bundle id, the workspace is destroyed and recreated. It would be beneficial if the provider supported workspace migration, which would persist user data.

Q: What data can I retain after a WorkSpaces migrate?

A: All data in the latest snapshot of the original user volume will be retained. For a Windows WorkSpace, the D drive data captured by the latest snapshot will be retained after migration and the C drive will be newly created from the target bundle image. In addition, migrate attempts to move data from the old user profile to the new one. Data that cannot be moved to the new profile will be preserved in a .notMigrated folder. For more information, please refer to the documentation.

Q: Can I move an existing WorkSpace from a public bundle to a custom bundle?

A: Yes. The WorkSpaces migrate function allows you to replace your WorkSpace’s root volume with a base image from another bundle. Migrate will recreate the WorkSpace using a new root volume from the target bundle image, and the user volume from the latest original user volume snapshot. For detailed information about migrate, please refer to the documentation.

Q: What’s the difference between migrate and rebuild?

A: WorkSpaces Migrate allows you to switch to a new bundle and have your user profile regenerated. Rebuild just refreshes your WorkSpace with a root volume generated from the base image of the original bundle.

Q: What happens if I rebuild my WorkSpace after migrate?

A: Migrate associates your WorkSpace with a new bundle. And a rebuild after migration will uses the newly associated bundle to generate the root volume.
