jonomite 29 Posted January 2, 2020 Posted January 2, 2020 I am planning to build a new server in the coming days and was hoping to get some input on the best steps to take to migrate my existing settings to the new server. I am using the config backup plugin - is it simply a matter of installing the server software on the new computer, installing the backup plugin, and restoring?
rechigo 365 Posted January 2, 2020 Posted January 2, 2020 Yes, as long as you move your backups to a folder on the new server and set that folder to your backup location on the plugin settings page. From there, you can simply restore your server configuration by clicking on any of the backups and going through and configuring what you want backed up, and then finally hitting "Restore Now"
arrbee99 1817 Posted January 2, 2020 Posted January 2, 2020 I don't think it keeps your watched state. Could well be wrong though.
ebr 16199 Posted January 2, 2020 Posted January 2, 2020 I don't think it keeps your watched state. Could well be wrong though. Yes, the plug-in does have the ability to backup and restore watched states, favorites, etc. You can even restore to a different user if you wish. 1
