You could do that, but you might end up with more forests than you really want on the destination host. That could be temporary while you use https://github.com/mblakele/corb-rebalancer to coalesce the forests.

It isn't as fast as backup-restore, but it is much more flexible. -- Mike On 19 Jun 2012, at 11:35 , Danny Sinang wrote: > Hi Geert, > > No, am looking for a complete copy. > > The database on the 3-node cluster uses forests spread across the 3 nodes. > > Are you saying I can backup the forests on the 3 QA nodes and restore them on > the singe DEV server ? > > Regards, > Danny > > On Tue, Jun 19, 2012 at 2:12 PM, Geert Josten <geert.jos...@dayon.nl> wrote: > Hi Danny, > > > Looking for a partial copy?
