Fresh server, connect old clients?

Server

We have a UrBackup server running on a Synology NAS. One of it’s 2 mirrored drives died fairly shortly after installing UrBackup, so we’ve been running it degraded for a few weeks… Finally got new drives, but given the amount of junk on the old drives (not UrBackup data), we decided to start fresh with 2 new clean drives, and simply store the old working drive on the shelf we keep old hardware on (as an archive of sorts).

So the question - if I install a fresh UrBackup server, what needs to happen on the clients to allow them to talk to the new server?

Look at the doc, you need to copy the servers keys.

For others that might look for this…

In the docs: UrBackup - Server administration manual

This is described just before section 4.4.

The location of the files is given incorrectly in section 4.3
The docs say that the files are in /var/lib/urbackup
but I found them in /var/urbackup instead.
