Migrate to new server and backups
-
I need to migrate VMs to new hardware. The new hardware doesn't have the same number of interfaces and has a bond whereas the current server does not have a bond, so I can't put them in the same pool.
Do I need to start backups fresh after the VMs have been migrated to the new hardware?
-
The backups should continue to function as long as the target remotes are still accessible from the new hardward.
-
@Danp This is great, thank you. So as long as I migrate the VM, the VM with "[XO Backup weekly-vm-backup]" appended that XO creates will come with it?
-
Maybe you should tell us more about the type of backup being performed, where backups are stored, etc.
-
@Danp Oh for sure!
I have 3 delta backups that backup to an NFS share on a QNAP NAS.
1 of the backups is weekly and the other 2 are daily.
Is that sufficient information or did I forget a detail?
-
Ok. You threw me a curve ball when you mentioned the "[XO Backup blah blah]" stuff. I think you are referring to the snapshots. If so, then yes they get transferred over when you migrate the VMs.
