9.9 Moving iFolder Data from One iFolder Server
to Another
You can relocate iFolder services and the iFolder data in the Simias Store from one iFolder server to
another, such as if you want to migrate to a more powerful system.
1 Notify users that the iFolder server is going down.
2 Stop iFolder services. As a root user, enter the following command at the terminal console:
/etc/init.d/apache2 stop
3 Use your normal file system backup procedures to back up the following data:
Š Simias store directory
The default location is
/var/simias/data/simias
.
Š Apache config files for iFolder
The default location is
/etc/apache2/conf.d
and contain the following files:
Š
simias.conf
Š
ifolder_admin.conf
(if available)
Š
ifolder_web.conf
(if available)
4 Install and configure iFolder on the target server, using the same configuration information and
location as on the old computer, including the IP address.
5
In a terminal console on the target server, run
ifolder-admin-setup
and
ifolder-web-
setup
to generate public keys in the server.
