   Hello Benny!   
      
   04 Oct 21 17:53, you wrote to Nigel Reed:

    NR>> of /dev/sda1   
      
   Speaking of dd power - I used to have in the past script to migrate VPS (eh,   
   ok, they gave VPS for one month for free and I wanted to save money) - I   
   migrated VPS every 4 weeks.   
      
   Beside booting to rescue on both (and some fstab fix), main command was:   
      
   xfsdump -l0 - / | gzip -c | ssh root@new_ip "gunzip -c | xfsrestore - /"   
      
   Local network speed within one host was amazing ;-)
