===Manually transferring configuration information===
If you wish to manually transfer configuration information from an old server to a new server you can use the following steps. All the files listed below are required as user information & passwords is contained in many different locations.
On the old server do the following to dump the mysql tables to a file in /home/e-smith/db/mysql/:
signal-event pre-backup
Copy all the following files & folders from the old server to the new server preferably using the tar command, see usage examples & syntax above in the section "Copying data to the restored server".
You can exclude ibay & user data if preferred by moving that data to /temp (see steps in above section "Procedure")
This list is based on the requirements of sme7.2:
/etc/e-smith/templates-custom
/etc/e-smith/templates-user-custom
/etc/group
/etc/gshadow
/etc/passwd
/etc/samba/secrets.tdb
/etc/samba/smbpasswd
/etc/shadow
/etc/smbpasswd
/etc/ssh
/etc/sudoers
/home/e-smith
/root
and add in
/opt
if you have stuff installed there.
After copying all the required files to the new server you need to run the following commands on the new server:
signal-event post-upgrade
reboot
