Export and import all data from one server to other

Q&A

Hello,
I have to change my Bonita from one server to another (without changing version)

I think it’s not enought to just export and import database because there are data contains into the webapp folder. Is there a complete documentation about that?

Thanks in advanced

PS : For information, I use Bonita 6.5 Community

Regard
Sylvain

Hi,

Since the version 7.3, all the configuration, runtime and business data is stored in the DB. Prior to 7.3, part of configuration and runtime data were stored in the filesystem, in a folder called bonita home. So if you want to move your instance of Bonita from a server to another, you need to copy the DB and Bonita home to your new server. Make sure you do these operations while your instance of Bonita is shutdown.

Also, this is a theoretical procedure, it might not work depends on your environment or customization you made.

Cheers
