Hi,

My server is currently running on CentOS 7 which is approaching the end of support. I'm looking to migrate it to a new Ubuntu 20.04 server. What is the best documentation to follow?


Thanks

Re: Migrate from old server to new server

Why would you migrate to Ubuntu 20.04 which EOL is Apr 2025? Move to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS or AlmaLinux9/Rocky9 or something else that has longer support.

Re: Migrate from old server to new server

I suggest waiting for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS which will be released on April 25, 2024: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases

iRedMail will support it shortly when it's out, feel free to push me if i didn't follow up.

Whoops that was a typo. Was meant to put 22.04, Good catch.

Thanks, I will follow that guide.
