Hello,

Recently I experimented with host migration from one backuppc to another
fresh install. I rsynced the hosts folder in /var/lib/BackupPC/pc/< Host >
to a new instance. After adding the host via the web GUI. I could see all
the incremental/full backup history. I was able to download archive and
restore it to a server. I have done this many times with 100% success rate
with other hosts.

I wanted to know is this a safe method off migration and cold storage
backup option, also how is this process working, I wasn't able to find
anything in the wiki regarding migrations other then TarCopy.


Thanks
Arsalan
