I am preparing for this migration. Do the name servers need to be changed before or after the migration? I've got my new JR5 setup and I wanted to point the nameservers to it. But wont do so if it impacts the migration module. Please advise.

Thanks!
Brian

Don't do it yet. The import process needs to point to the Jr4 URL to pull the files over.
Presumably the new Jr5 DO server is accessible by its IP.

Paul - Yes that's correct. OK thanks for the clarification, won't touch it. At this point I just want to make sure my JR5 install is setup correctly, of which I've purchased the Guaranteed installation service. I will respond to the ticket w/ master admin and FTP login info.

Another thing I need to consider before the migration is I need to bump up my DO droplet size to match the JR4 site...which unfortunately is going to be the 160Gb droplet.

So, presumably I'll have to follow this guide too: https://www.jamroom.net/brian/documentation/guides/1265/optional-mysql-optimizations-for-larger-servers

Thanks for the help,
Brian

OK I think I'm squared away on my DO droplet for the target JR5 site. A few quick Qs:

- Will the target JR5 server need these MySQL optimizations? https://www.jamroom.net/brian/documentation/guides/1265/optional-mysql-optimizations-for-larger-servers

- Will the PHP.INI file on the JR5 server need to be modified (max_upload_filesize) or does the JR Import module bypass that?

I should add that some artists on my JR4 server have 2-hour mixes uploaded @ 128kbps, so the file sizes for some audio will be approx 110-120mb.

Let me know if I'm on the right track-
Thank you kindly!

I would recommend it - even with only 2G RAM MySQLs default is not really "optimized" - take the time to tweak MySQL.

Yes...

Hope this helps!

Like it says in that page, its optional, but if you have the extra ram to spare its good to do.

I did it to my local dev site and it feels faster. (might be psychological, not sure.)

@Michael - sorry for the confusion - my question is posted at the bottom of that page.. there are 2 entries for "key_buffer" in the cnf file. Was wondering which one needs to be modified.

Thanks! B

So inside the my.cnf, you'll see it is broken up into "sections". The key_buffer is in there twice - once for the server, and once for the "isamchk" mysql tool, so you want to modify the one near the top in the mysqld section.

Hope this helps!
