SteveT Posted January 28, 2023 Posted January 28, 2023 (edited) Reading through the posts, was unable to find a specific procedure to migrate my rpi hosted Polyglot to Polisy. I figured i would backup in the PG2 web interface (BACKUP) on the rpi (running on the typical :3000), and restore the created .ZIP on the PG2 on Polisy, and restart via the web UID. No go. Not even an indication the backup "took". On the Polisy PG2, even before the RESTORE, it seems to have detected unmanaged node servers in slots 1, 2,3 where my backup would restore to. What procedure have others followed? What am i missing? thanks, Steve Edited January 28, 2023 by SteveT
MrBill Posted January 28, 2023 Posted January 28, 2023 3 hours ago, SteveT said: unmanaged node servers in slots 1, 2,3 where my backup would restore to. This is because the node server slots still are still in use from the RPI. One would need to backup via the rpi, then delete the node servers at the rpi, this would free the slots up. Then if you're lucky the rpi PG2 backup might restore on PG2... but it might not also. If you re-install the same node servers in the same slots and with the same setup, you should be able to open any programs that use the nodes, make a non-change (i.e. highlight any line and hit update) then re-save the programs.
SteveT Posted January 28, 2023 Author Posted January 28, 2023 Yikes ! Thank you @MrBill for some ideas. Its all about the programs you miss- honestly. The node servers can be deleted from the Polisy side as well I assume - and I assume restored via a regular backup if we think PG2 is a less reliable method.. What about this? - Perform a backup of Polyglot on rpi -and- document settings. - Perform a backup of IOP (Polisy). - Turn off RPI Node servers. - Delete 1,2,3 node servers from the IOP (Polisy). - Try restore from PG2 to Polisy performed on RPI. ?? thanks, Steve
