Personally, I always use rsync for that sort of thing. Key feature being that it is restartable.
Indeed but unfortunately in this case it doesn't work. It runs out of memory on the old server before completing preparation of the file list. And I don't want to mess around with the config on the old [production] server - I want to replace it.
Cheers, Dave
