System cloning

njatkins

I have recently tried cloning (clonezilla) from one drive to another to make a “mirror” system.
This has not worked (as below).
Think I am missing something major just not what.

njatkins You need a link called “.env” pointing to your mailcow.conf

root@testcow:/opt/mailcow-dockerized# ls -la .env
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Apr 21  2022 .env -> mailcow.conf

Better use the create_cold_standby.sh script which will completly clone your mailcow to another system

njatkins

I will give the cold standby a go.
was this just a bad copy of that disk then that did not make the link file?
