In config.php, there’s instanceid. What exactly is this for, and how unique 
does it need to be?

Example:
1. I move to a different server. Can I use the same instanceid on the new 
server?
2. I restore an owncloud backup to a new installation temporarily. Can I use 
the same instanceid for both? On the same server (with different virtual 
hostname and/or context)
3. I upgrade owncloud. To make sure the upgrade went smoothly, I run both old 
and new versions side by side for some time (different virtual hostname and/or 
context, and copied dbs and data dir)
4. I get divorced (just kidding, it’s an example!). Both get a full copy of the 
home owncloud. Do they need different instanceids? What if they chose the same 
hosting provider?

If I do need to change it, how do I generate a new one?

Thanks,



Johannes.
