Restoring:

  1. Turn maintenance on
  2. Make backup from directories
  3. Make backup from mysql. You can use phpmyadmin when you prefer
  4. Buy new Sd-Card, because RPI3 is using microSD.
  5. Restore all data
  6. Turn maintenance mode off.

I use NextcloudPi, but just sticking the SD card into the Pi 3 worked perfectly. I just need to re-mount any fstab mounting info I’d personally configured by UUID on the Pi 2.

One other thing, you’ll need to re-configure the Pi from your router if it’s IP was statically assigned by MAC address

I thought Pi2 uses SD-Cards and Pi3 uses microSD-Cards? :confused:

In that case copy the SD card image to a Micro SD card.
