Migrating and merging redmine servers ?

Added by Damien Accorsi over 11 years ago

Hi all,

I manage two redmine serveur including both several projects. The redmine versions I use are 0.9.3 and 1.3.2. I do not use personalized data.

I'd like to migrate my projects into a unique new redmine server, maybe 1.3.2 but the higher is the better.

What I plan to do is first to migrate the 0.9.3 to 1.3.2, then to use the following script : https://github.com/PowerKiKi/redmine-tools/blob/master/migrator.php
in order to migrate both 1.3.2 to a new empty instance of redmine.

The linked migration script is only ready for a migration from a host to another; it is not ready to merge projects (with same ids, issues with same ids, etc). One preparation step could be to upgrade the ids on one of my redmine instances in order to be compatible with the other.

What do you think? Do you know another tool that would help me merging the two instances? For information, one of my instances is only used by me, so I can easily change the ids of issues & projects.

Thanks in advance for your comments & help.

Damien
