Re the backend MySQL storage, you make the new MySQL instance a slave of the
old one. That way nothing can get lost.
We've find this many times with large systems. No
New hardware has been purchased for the system that hosts the LUV VM. The old
server is a i7-920, 8G of RAM, and 2*750G SATA disks. The "new" server is a
i7-930, 48G of RAM, 2*250G SATA SSD, and 2*2TB SATA disks. I put new in
quotes because it's not new hardware, it's hardware someone else
