moving files between servers

#1 Postby mtalaat » May 03, 2009 9:22 pm

Hello,

I'd like to know how to move files between servers.

e.g. 3 xfilesharing servers, one of the server will be removed from service after moving files to the others servers.

Clients should use old generated links as usual.

Please advice

This would be very simple. You just edit server configuration on the xfilesharing pro installation, to have new server hostname or IP address, cgi-bin, files directory, etc. Make sure all your permissions are correct.

Then the new server should have all the files, and your web server see them - all finished?

You need to copy the files obviously.

well you'd have to create the identical environment on the new server(folder wise) manually move the files and database after stoping it, then change Xconfig files settings.Lastly change dns an resync the dtabase an you should be fine.
