Hi there,
might somebody recommend a good way to migrate user and web files
to our new server?
???
tar and scp work well for me
okay might you recommend a good command structure?
Sorry I am dense but I just tar up whatever directories (user, web,
whatever) and then use scp to copy them to the new server where I use
tar to undue them. I don't quite understand your question
man tar
man scp
% tar cpf archive.tar <userdir>
scp over
% tar xpf archive.tar
there are cooler ways of doing this. there will be people on this list
that know what I am talking about. I will await their responses.
things like rdiff-backup could be useful since I can prep everything and
periodically move things over and then on a flag day switch the IPs.
cheers,
Noah
