Hello Rene,
About your question 1), I created a small utility script to replicate a
whole
CouchDB server to another. You can find at
https://github.com/adrienverge/coucharchive and run it with:
coucharchive replicate --from http://r...@server.com:5984 \
--to http://ad...@other-server.com:5984
I hope this helps.
Adrien
