I just created a tar file, actually a tar.gz file and scp'd to a server, at first i was worried that the gzip caused issues, but as i mentioned no errors on start up, and i thought i would see some. @Erick, how would you recommend. This is going to be less of an issue b/c i need to build the index programmatically anyway, but would be nice to know if only for curiosity. Perhaps making a replication backup and then restoring on the new server would be better. In the middle of other things now, will try a few of those, plus some other ideas.
