one interesting thing about yacy - it is basically portable, all self contained so you can just grab the folder and move it to another machine and it just works. I have it on a hdd raid, it is a bit slow, moving it to a machine with nvme or ssd helps a bunch #yacy #search engine #index #tagcloud #related

I did not have the same easy experience. The newer version of Yacy is not compatible with the older versions, so the trick of copying the DATA folder did not work from an older version that had a big storage of crawl data. But, if you are staying with the same #Yacy versions on both machines, your idea should work.

That's the incompatibility of internal #solr
Usually, with the major version number increase, the solr is upgraded. And solr is able to upgrade only one version up, not two. So you can upgrade #YaCy, for example, from 1.93 to 1.94, not 1.96.
Exporting and reimporting the whole index is a way how to cross this limitation, but can take time and disk space, depending on the size of index.
