Migrating to new server

[rtolley050]

Hi all,

Very quick one here. The restore script, should this be ran from the source or destination server?

Obviously one has a very different outcome to the other, I just wanted to double check.

Thanks,
Ryan

The method I use is:
1. Build new server
2. Backup old server
3. Restore backup to new server
4. Run upgrade on the new server at least twice

The upgrade process will make any database schema changes and data type changes to the restored data required by the new level of software.
