Hi,

Just a quick note on migration.  If you are simply migrating your DSpace 
content from one server to another, you don't need to use the packager or 
similar tools. Instead, just copy over the following:
* Copy your entire database contents to your new database (e.g. for 
Postgres, use tools like pg_dump and pg_restore). This copies all 
metadata/relationships over to the new server
* Copy over your entire [dspace]/assetstore folder (including all 
subdirectories) to the new location. This copies all files over to the new 
server.
* Verify your new configs look good in [dspace]/config/ folder (you can 
copy these over from the old server or start fresh, either will work)
* Optionally, run "./dspace database migrate" to upgrade the database (if 
you are moving from 5.x to 6.x or similar, this is required)
* Start up your DSpace.
* Finally, run a full reindex of everything into Solr (./dspace 
index-discovery -b)

This migration process should result in all your content moved over to a 
fresh DSpace without having to use the packager at all.
