Others can speak to the rest of the plan, but just to clarify in case
I'm understanding you right: the PuppetDB import/export tools are not
intended to work across different versions of PDB, so an export of 2.x
data will not be importable on 3.x. I can see that this is a hole in our
documentation, which I'll fix up in a minute.
Instead, the necessary data migrations will be handled by the upgrade
itself on the first startup of PuppetDB 3.0. Taking a pg_dump or
PuppetDB export for a backup prior to the upgrade is still a prudent
thing to do in case a downgrade is required, but that will only allow
you to restore from the version you came from (possibly earlier ones too
in the export case, but only by happenstance). For your use case I'd
recommend pg_dump over PuppetDB export since it'll run a lot faster, but
either one will get the job done.
