15.4. Migrating an Application to Another Gear
There may be cases when an application must be migrated to another gear.
Procedure 15.1. To Migrate an Application to Another Gear:
- Create a snapshot of an existing application:
$
rhc snapshot save App_Name
- Verify that the
App_Name.tar.gz
file has been created in the working directory. After confirming the application snapshot is saved, delete the existing application:$
rhc app delete App_Name
- Create a new application using the same cartridges, but with the correct gear size:
$
rhc app create App_Name Cart_Name -g gear_size
- Finally, restore the previously saved application snapshot to the newly created application. Be sure to specify the correct path to the saved application snapshot:
$
rhc snapshot restore App_Name -f App_Name.tar.gz
