Migrating lists from one host to another

To migrate lists from solarsail to sunjammer, I did the following:

• Lower TTL for lists.sugarlabs.org to 30 minutes

• Copy over config before cut-off:

 ssh solarsail
 cd /var/lib/mailman/lists/
 rsync -aP aslo bugs colombia community-news dextrose fourthgrademath gsoc iaep italia marketing soas somosazucar sugar-desarrollo sugar-devel sugar-reports  systems systems-logs root@sunjammer:/var/lib/mailman/lists/
 cd /var/lib/mailman/archives/private
 rsync -aP aslo* bugs* colombia* community-news* dextrose* fourthgrademath* gsoc* iaep* italia* marketing* soas* somosazucar* sugar-desarrollo* sugar-devel* sugar-reports* systems* systems-logs* root@sunjammer:/var/lib/mailman/archives/private/

• Copy over the lists.sugarlabs.org bits from the Postfix configuration (/etc/postfix/main.cf and /etc/postfix/transport)

• Test admin pages and archives on the new site (I've set the new IP for lists.sugarlabs.org in /etc/hosts)

• Announce downtime on all affected lists

• Configure postfix on solarsail to relay anything@lists.sugarlabs.org to sunjammer

• Switch over DNS records

• Restore default TTL for lists.sugarlabs.org
