Re: Moving pgadmin4.db to a new server

Hi Murtuza,

Thanks. The server definitions seems to be ok only by moving the db files.
However we can't really be sure.

Is there - in the docs - a schema description for each version ?

We have +100 users and we will not be popular if we can't migrate to another
server but will have have to ask the users to start over with settings and
passwords.

We might be able to write a tool to do this if we can find the docs. Other users
might find this useful to when they have to change servers.

Best and thanks again for the product.
