Carbonite Migrate can be used to migrate live physical, virtual or cloud servers to the same or different platforms. In order to migrate live open files, a small agent needs to be installed and configured on the source (current production server) and the target (new destination server).
This video shows how to install and configure the Carbonite replication agent on Ubuntu Linux. The same steps can be used on any physical or ubuntu server, however the process to install on Red Hat, Oracle Enterprise Linux, SUSE, CentOS and Rocky would be very similar.
We'll show how easy it is to provision a suitable target server in Exoscale Cloud, as we will be creating a follow on video showing how to migrate Linux servers from VMware ESX to Exoscale. The process for Windows servers would be very similar, and I have already posted a video showing Full Server migration of a Windows 2019 server from Microsoft Azure to Exoscale Cloud.
