It has been a while since I had to rehost my production machine to a test server, but I recently upgraded to 10.2 and would like my test server to reflect the 10.2 production server so that I have a fresh start. I would like to use the Rehost 2.0 tool to help me since I do not want to go through a manual rehost. I do have Solr turned on, some customization and connect to our corporate LDAP. I have an app server and a database server in production and am moving to the same on two virtual servers. Which method would be better and why?
- Copy all the files to the new machines, import the database and use Rename
- Use Rehost with a staging area
- Use Clone with a staging area
