Hi John
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Yes, thats possible to migrate OMERO from one server to the another and upgrade in the same time. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1. You need to install the latest version of OMERO on you brand new server. This should include clean database and make sure it is working correctly. Please follow instruction on <a href="http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/support/omero4/sysadmins/unix/server-install-linux.html">http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/support/omero4/sysadmins/unix/server-install-linux.html</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>2. Then you need to backup database from the production server as described on <a href="http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/support/omero4/sysadmins/server-backup-and-restore.html#backing-up-omero">http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/support/omero4/sysadmins/server-backup-and-restore.html#backing-up-omero</a>.
 In terms of configuration backup it depends on what was exactly set up on production server and how much of those match new config set up in step 1.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>3. Now is migration part. </div>
<div> - stop your both OMERO servers,</div>
<div> - restore database from your production_backup</div>
<div> - copy over Binary Repository from production to the new OMERO server</div>
<div> - run database upgrade script as <a href="http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/support/omero4/sysadmins/server-upgrade.html#upgrade-your-database">
http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/support/omero4/sysadmins/server-upgrade.html#upgrade-your-database</a></div>
<div> - run your new OMERO server.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>4. If you use OMERO.web please remember about setting up apache/nginx configuration as well.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I hope it will be helpful.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you have any problems or more questions please just let us know.</div>

In order to make life easier for ourselves, and to move away from a non-standard operating system, we are considering creating a new Omero server and cloning our existing Omero Database to a newly built server based on our standard operating system build. 
 Is this possible, and if so, should we follow the “OMERO.server backup and restore” documentation on the Openmicroscopy website (<a href="http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/support/omero4/sysadmins/server-backup-and-restore.html" style="color:rgb(149,79,114); text-decoration:underline">http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/support/omero4/sysadmins/server-backup-and-restore.html</a>)?</div>

I can see from the instructions on the above page, that the OMERO.server version for the new server should “match” the version originally installed.  Is there any way in which we can perform an update (from 4.3.4 to 4.4.8)  as part of this process, or will
 we need to clone the server at version 4.3.4 and then perform the upgrade separately afterwards?</div>
