Hi, The problem synthetically is about "How to duplicate an already configured instance [b]effectively[/b]?"
[i]I know there are Tools > Export / Import , but is this feasible? In a first try, I've exported each repository and imported back in another (pure bundle of the same version) instance but there were WARN and ERROR. This is not my main question but for this point would be useful a wiki, explaining the best/correct order of re-importing all these 20 repositories (e.g.: first "userroles" , then "usergroups" , then "users".. etc ) and the best/correct way to manage their IDs (generate new or substitute). [/i] (It would be nice even a nice solution even if it not comprehend the biggest repositories "dam/dms" and "website" . [url=https://forum.magnolia-cms.com/forum/thread.html?threadId=0c92142c-62f7-4a92-9e38-0aaea581f06e&page=1]This is not my main problem[/url] ) This is my experience: -Starting form an operative (meaning with various personalizations - although mostly on repository "templates") instance MGNL5.3.8 CE (total size 2GB based on jackrabbit+external PostgreSQL db) -Duplicate the instance exactly on another server. -Delete all website pages and dam assets (that is 95% of the 2GB total size). -The total size of new instance remain about 2GB! Most of the size (in author and public) is inside ..repositories/magnolia/repository/datastore.. I already checked and : -It is not a problem related to temp directories -It should be not a version files problem -It is not a 1 time error, I've recreated this situation various times. [b]My configuration[/b] Inside files /home/X/magnolia-5.3.8/apache-tomcat-7.0.47/webapps/author/WEB-INF/config/default/magnolia.properties /home/X/magnolia-5.3.8/apache-tomcat-7.0.47/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/config/default/magnolia.properties magnolia.repositories.jackrabbit.config is set to magnolia.repositories.jackrabbit.config=WEB-INF/config/repo-conf/jackrabbit-bundle-postgres-search.xml Inside files ..ROOT/WEB-INF/config/repo-conf/jackrabbit-bundle-postgres-search.xml ..author/WEB-INF/config/repo-conf/jackrabbit-bundle-postgres-search.xml (for completeness : [url=http://pastebin.com/XFx5AL3Y]here the entire file[/url] ) [i]basically the bundle file except for 1) external DB 2) public and author are distinct [/i] <param name="url" value="jdbc:postgresql://X_external_db:5432/X_external" /> … <param name="schemaObjectPrefix" value="[public|author]_pm_${wsp.name}_" /> … <param name="schemaObjectPrefix" value="[public|author]_version_" /> … Inside file /home/X/magnolia-5.3.8/apache-tomcat-7.0.47/conf/server.xml points to a configured port for the instance. What the heck could it be? A fast fb would be really appreciated. I spent a lot of time inside the forum, Richard Unger in few posts recognize kind of these problems ([url=https://forums.magnolia-cms.com/forum/thread.html?threadId=29e31b61-c16d-460e-9162-3356751320f7]help cleaning[/url] - [url=https://jira.magnolia-cms.com/browse/MGNLTOOLS-43]maybe is DataStore garbage linked[/url] - ). I even googled a lot about postgresql version, if it is a "vacuum"/optimization DB unsolvable problem (I really hope I am wrong). Related problem were in old versions e.g.:3.5 when you deactivate the content, reactivate, and the size of that content doubled in the total amount of that instance size.
