Migrate data out of git raft into file based raft
-
I am migrating to a new server, as my old one is dying. I was able to install otter on the new server and restore the otter DB from a backup, but I am not having much luck getting my git server (On Prem Bitbucket) back up and running. Can I grab everything out of the git raft and transfer it to a new file based raft that just works?

You could transfer to a file-based raft. In that case, you can follow the same directions for migrating to a Git-based raft and just treat folder you configured for the file-based raft as your target. Instead of exporting your files from Otter, you could just check out the Git repository and copy the files to the folder you configured for the file-based raft (leave out the
.gitwhen you copy the files). Would that work for you?Thanks,

So I able to make a copy of it, and it has the files but none of the configurations in the roles. I will try copying the git repository and see if that works.

Have you reviewed the Backing up Otter documentation? We outline how to backup and restore a ProGet instance in there. If you are missing configurations, it shoulds like you may not have copied all of the files from your git repository or the configurations were not stored in the Git raft. Do you still have access to your old server? You could also navigate to Administration -> Rafts and download your Git raft as a zip file as well.
Thanks,
Rich
