Migrating entire Cloudron from AWS to GCP

[plains.digital]

I dont want to migrate my EC2 instance as my EBS vol was obnoxiously oversized.
Want to rebuild my VM on GCP and Migrate my entire Cloudron setup to it. Is this possible, or just more work than would be worthwhile?

Just restore your backup, like it shows in the docs.

@plains-digital easy to do with Cloudron.
as @robi says. make sure your backups are recent and restore from latest
done it several times, very reliable
but follow the docs

i started to do it my own way (because i am stupid and impatient) .. realised i could restore from backup .. now im stuck somewhere in the damn middle and cant get it to accept the backup path. i will try to back pedal and fix myself. thanks for the nudge

[plains.digital]

i unscrewed that part only to realise my new server is 7.5 and all the backups are still 7.42

SO! sorry to be a pain in the butt, but I have managed to get my new server rolling - on a new domain name altogether, fresh start for Canada Day! ‍️ Is it still possible to migrate via back up on an app by app basis? is this really obvious and i've just confused myself with the previous tomfoolery? thanks in advance for the support.

you should install 7.4.2 on the destination as the docs say, then you can restore all at once.

@plains-digital yes, you can also restore app by app. https://docs.cloudron.io/backups/#import-app-backup . But obviously, restoring entire server via backup is far simpler.
