Dell PowerProtect Cyber Recovery 19.13 Installation Guide

Migrate to a different server

Migrate your Cyber Recovery deployment to different server that is running a supported operating system.

1. On the current server, verify the MongoDB and lockbox passphrases, which are required to perform a recovery to complete the migration:

   # .crsetup.sh ––verifypassword

2. Record information about the deployment, such as:
   • The required networks settings, which include IP address, DNS, FQDN, mail server (Postfix), firewall settings, and so on
   • Docker and Docker Compose versions
3. Create a backup copy of the existing deployment, using either:
   • The Cyber Recovery UI—This option is preferred and places a server DR backup at the configured DD MTree.
   • The CLI, using the following command:

   # crsetup.sh --save

   NOTE: The backup copy is saved to the /opt/dellemc/cr-configs directory. Ensure that you save the backup copy to an external disk.
4. Install the same version of the Cyber Recovery software that was running on the original deployment.
   We recommend that you set the MongDB and lockbox passphrases with the same passphrases used on the original deployment.
5. Perform a recovery and restore the data:
   • If you used the Cyber Recovery UI to create the backup file, mount the Cyber Recovery backup MTree to the Cyber Recovery host.
   • If you used the CLI to create the backup file, copy the backup file to location on the Cyber Recovery server and run the following command:

     # crsetup.sh --recover
