Hi,

I understand that you can't restore a backup from one architecture to another, 
so from:
https://docs.marklogic.com/guide/admin/backup_restore#id_pgfId-1042443

*         The backup files are platform specific--backups on a given platform 
should only be restored onto the same platform. This is true for both database 
and forest backups.
I think you'd need to use MLCP or similar to copy the contents from one 
server's database to the other.
Kind Regards,
Anne

Subject: [MarkLogic Dev General] Platform migration - Win to OSx

Afternoon all,

I am trying to migrate a MarkLogic database from Windows to OS x, and was 
wondering if anyone knew if it was possible! I know that for clustering that 
MarkLogic requires the clusters to be the same architecture (as per the 
reference documents online), but cannot find anything definitive in regards to 
exporting/restoring backups!

When i did a backup / restore I got the following error:

Operation failed with error message: XDMP-LABELBADPLATFORM: 
xdmp:database-restore((xs:unsignedLong("14800671169375660052"), 
xs:unsignedLong("11217911940037168149"), 
xs:unsignedLong("17896408292347543721")), 
"/Users/richard/Downloads/backup-productdemo-content/20160407-142352...", (), 
fn:false(), (), fn:false(), ()) -- Bad platform in label: winnt instead of 
macosx in 
/Users/richard/Downloads/backup-productdemo-content/20160407-1423520510000/Forests/productdemo-content-001-1/Label.
 Check server logs.

This was on OSx, but did get the same error on Linux.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Cheers
Rich
