[Dxspider-support] Cloning node to new machine - guidance needed

[Mike G3YPP]

Thanks Dirk,

Is <newmachine> the ip address of the new machine?

So on the old machine I run:
rsync -av /home/sysop/* 192.168.0.145:/home/sysop

Would that work?

I appreciate that I can’t run both nodes at the same time.
Really appreciate your time and help on this

------------------------------------------
rsync -av /home/sysop/* <newmachine>:/home/sysop
ln -s /home/sysop/spider /  # if you have not already done so on the new 
machine

It will copy which ever version you are currently running and will have 
everything that the current machine has.

You will need to cp /spider/dxspider.service /etc/systemd/system

BE WARNED: running the new machine while the old machine is running and 
connecting outside will likely cause problems. It would be a good idea 
to rename /spider/local_cmd/crontab on the new machine until you change 
over.

73 Dirk
