I have migrated RT to a new box/OS multiple times in our years of use. What I do is spin up a VM with my OS of choice and install the exact same version of RT as my old server. I then dump the DB and import into the new server and verify data is correct and RT is operational. Lastly, I proceed with the upgrade to the latest version of RT. It has always been pretty painless but I don't have a lot of customization in RT.
