Hello Bro, 1. Installed one VM with all in one setup. 2. Dumped the dbs (mongo and mysql). 3. Stopped the db services and made this VM as App server.
NB: Note the version of MongoDB server and MySQL server. 4. Setup another VM for db, install the versions of DB's found from the last step. 5. Restore the DB's here. 6. Configure the DB's so that users can access from the remote App server. Now its time to make modifications in the configuration files of App server, so that edxapp can communicate. If you check the mysql database, you can see some users there. Actually these users are used for App and DB communication. 7. Modify the host, passwords field in the lms.auth.json file. As i said earlier, there are few file in etc dir which are also required to modified like xqueue and so on. Once the modifications are made you can restart supervisor services. You can watch the logs to find if there requires more modifications /edx/var/log/lms/edx.log. This is how I made it. May be you can install without the all in one option. Am not so sure about that. Tricks : During the installation of openedx all in one installation, there is a step where you can create encrypted passwords for DB users. I created a script to automatically create the users with encrypted passwords file. So before dumping the DB, i ran the script to create the users. After that i dumped the dbs and restored it. The only thing left was to modify the config files in edxapp. I have also made a small script for that too. Actually creating the script made my job very easy. It took like more than a month for me to sort the things. But openedx is clearly an open source code. You just needs to figure it out. Hope you have got a fair idea to how to deal with it. Let me know if you need any more info.
