Hi,
I am working with alfresco community 5.2. I have installed alfresco on a linux server and now its almost full. I need to move the alfresco database to another server. I have test it using another location of the same server & it works perfectly. But using that way i can't move database to another server.
I did it by,
1. Stop alfresco
2. Copy the alf_data folder into new server.
3. change the dir.root into dir.root = 10.8.8.44/opt/alf_data
4. Start alfresco
After this alfresco not worked.
I need to know how to do this. Please help me...
Thank you.
Hi anuradha madhushani,
You are moving only alf_data to another server but not your database, without the old database new instance won't work.
Ideally, to migrate Alfresco you should take the backup of the followings
1. Alfresco database
2. alf_data
3. indexes
4. customization and configurations you have made
You can use Alfresco Backup Script for Linux Instance Alfresco support | ContCentric for Alfresco backup.
You can then restore the backup into new Alfresco instance.
Please let me know if you have a further query.
Thanks,
Kalpesh
