[rt-users] Help moving DB to a new server.

[Priddy, John]

If your moving to a newer version of RT don't forget to run the upgrade
scripts as well (after you dump all this into mysql as mentioned
previously)...Something along the lines of: /root/rt-3.4.0/etc/upgrade

If its an inodb,  once you made a dump (per the instruction below), 
To install on the dev server,  mysql -u root -p < name_of_file.sql  
If you just install rt on the dev server, you will need to drop the rt
database.  I'm assuming you are naming the database, user, group the
same way they are on the production machine.   

To drop the database on the dev system,
   mysqladmin -u root -p drop database_name
Then upload the production database
   mysql -u root -p < name_of_file.sql

Now you should be back in business.

If its an inodb then mysqldump -u root -p name_of_db >> name_of file.sql

If its isam, I would try shutting down the mysql server and moving thee
data, but it probably wont work.
