hello Richard That is bad news. We are in an ongoing struggle to find a convenient way to migrate large data sets. Magnolia (and jcr) is not helpful in this regard. Importing large xml files in the repository does not work. The packager promises to bypass this problem by splitting the export into separate files for each content node. But by first storing the whole package in the repo it's usefulness dies from our perspective.
The only thing that seems to work so far is the backup and restore jsp's, but they lack ease of use. The packaging module is what we need... @Grégory Would it be possible for Magnolia to change the packaging module in this respect? Offhand it would seem like a minor change, with big usability implications (for the better). Anyway, thanks for the reply.
