Transfer Dash Enterprise to a new server

1 - Go to the Server Manager; then select Stop Now to stop the running instance.

2 - Back up your Plotly data directory the same way you would when preparing for an upgrade (see Back up your Plotly data and databases for guidance).

3 - Transfer your data directory to your new server using your preferred method (e.g. rsync).

4 - Install Dash Enterprise from scratch on your new server using the Plotly instructions in this guide that are appropriate to your use case.

4.1 - When configuring the new instance's Settings, specify the transferred data directory as your new Plotly data directory.

4.2 - You will need to SSH into your server and rebuild your Dash services and apps from within the dash container for them to start up correctly:

docker exec -it dash bash

for service in $(dokku --quiet redis:list); do dokku redis:start $service; done

for service in $(dokku --quiet postgres:list); do dokku postgres:start $service; done

dokku ps:rebuild --all

5 - Once the installation is complete and running on your new server, you can stop the running instance on your old server.
