Moving to new Hobbit server

[ZanDAhaR <allan (at) zandahar.net>]

Hey guys,

Can't seem to find anything on this but then again I haven't gone 
through all the results that come up on the mailing list search either.

We moved from BB server to a Hobbit server a while ago but it was on the 
same box so there was no issue there. We are shuffling some old hardware 
around and decided to give our hobbit server some more grunt and also 
add some other odd apps on it. We'll want to progrssively move the hosts 
over to the new server so the clients are cool, just update the ip in 
windows ones, and the ip and hostname in the nix ones

As for the server I'm assuming I can just copy the data dir over for the 
host I'm moving. I cannot imagine there being anything server specific 
in any of the status messages or graphs ?

So action plan would be, shut down client on XYZ, define it in bb-hosts 
file on NEWHOBBIT, has it out in the OLDHOBBIT bb-hosts file, copy 
appropriate data folders from OLDHOBBIT to NEWHOBBIT (update ownership 
if need be), update ip addy and hostname in XYZ client settings, start 
client XYZ, be happy :)

Any flaws in this thinking or suggestions of easier way even though I 
cannot imagine one can you please let me know

Thanks

Allan
