Jenkins uses mostly XML file-based storage, so you should be able to copy over 
the entire JENKINS_HOME (typically /var/lib/jenkins) and use that.

Make sure you copy over other Jenkins-related files like /etc/default/jenkins 
or /etc/sysconfig/jenkins (depending on distro) as well, as they may contain 
important configuration.
