_DatabaseMigrationConfluenceSetup
When running the Confluence setup wizard:
- Enter your license key, as usual.
- Choose Production Installation as the installation type.
- Choose My own database then select your particular database from the Database type dropdown menu.
- When prompted to choose My own database, then select your new Database type.
- Enter your database details. Use test connection to check your database is set up correctly.
- On the load content step, choose Restore From Backup. This is where you will import the data from your XML backup. There are two options for accessing the XML file:
- Browse to the location of your XML backup on your network, and choose Upload and Restore.
- Alternatively, put the XML file in the Confluence home directory of the new site (
<CONFLUENCE-HOME-DIRECTORY>\restore) then choose Restore. This is the recommended method for large XML files.
Note: If you choose not to restore during the Confluence setup wizard, you can do the import later. Go to the Confluence administration console and choose to restore an XML backup. See Site Backup and Restore.
