Migrate with ncp to new hardware

[martingwb]

Hi,
I want to migrate from

• old: rpi4, ncp 1.52.2, nc 26.0.3.2 to
• new: x86, ncp 1.52.2, nc 26.0.3.2

In general I am planning to follow the chapter “Migrating to a different server” from the nc admin manual (basically copying the config.php, database and data folder). That leads me to the following questions:

• What do I need to do differently with regards to ncp? e.g. where is the configuration of all the ncp tools stored?
• What about the apps? As I am migrating to a different plattform, can I simply copy the apps folders?

thank you,
kr,
Martin
