Easiest way to migrate upload data to new location?

[kujila3916]

Hello,

Using the File Server manager, I can create and remove various locations for end users to upload files.

If I want to move a file server's contents, from say, a local server to a remote one, how should I do that? If I just copy the data folder over, and use the same file server name, will it auto import the uploaded files?

Thanks!

scp -rp /home/filewebsite/public_html/files/ root@ipserver:/home/filewebsite/public_html/

Thanks for the reply. I think I need to be more specific in my question.

Let's say I run dfdssfsfd's command he posted, and move all the files. So now all the files are moved from Server 1 to Server 2. All I need to do then is point "File Servers" settings to the new location (using the same name) and everything will work OK?

yes you change the command line to be done by ssh will ask the password of the server or sending you I could send 80 gigabytes in a minute

I moved all files from 1st server (were 80 files) to 2nd, I made the same file name, but I see that I still have only 1 new uploaded file (I uploaded this file for test). All 80 files are on new location - I see it on my ftp. I used scp -rp /var/www/files_2/ [email protected]:/var/www/ and all files from first server were moved... What can I do to see in my website Admin Panel in "File Servers" section that on my second new server are this moved files??

if id is not the same if you have to change your look in the new server files folder

is there a easy way to change each single Server ID ?
I have 600 files, and it's not easy when I want to change it in database manually.....

To do all files which have the same server ID would be something like this:

UPDATE file SET serverId = '2' WHERE serverId = '1'

"SET serverId" is the new server ID
"WHERE serverId" is the previous server ID

thank you, but where I have to give this code? in putty? "data base" in my website?

 

[ysmods]

PHPmyadmin or similar database manager

You will need to change the server ID's in the single quotes to match your settings
