After that, you can download the file server agent to your file server and install it. After the installation, you can start migrate folders to OpenStack Swift Cloud Storage.

After you have done it from a branch office, you can continue to repeat the same steps on other branch offices and keep adding folders from other branch office to the SoftLayer OpenStack Swift. After all, it is a single namespace and unified file structure that you can use.
