Server migration

Server migration means moving Quollix and app data from one server to another. This can be useful when switching cloud providers, upgrading hardware, or moving between self-hosted and cloud infrastructure.

Old server

  • Backups need to be enabled in Backup server settings.
  • Open Installed apps and create a backup of each app.
    • First, back up all apps except Postgres.
    • Last, back up the Postgres app.

New server

  • Install Quollix using the production setup guide until you can sign in to Quollix on the new server.
    • Use the same Quollix Docker image tag as the old server to avoid compatibility issues.
  • Configure the same backup server settings.
  • Open Backups and restore all apps.
    • First, restore the Postgres app. Restoring it replaces the current session, so you need to sign in again afterwards.
    • Then restore all other apps.
  • Update DNS so the domain points to the new server IP address.
