Could you elaborate on this bit.

When using Redis, all of the data lives in Redis, plus the public/uploads folder.

Zip all that up: tar -czf nodebb.tar.gz -C /path/to/redis/dumps dump.rdb -C /path/to/nodebb/public uploads
Transfer it to a new server
On new server, stop redis: service redis-server stop
Uncompress and copy dump.rdb over the existing db, restore the uploads/ folder
Start redis.

Thank you guys, anyway can I use filezilla instead of tar commands to transfer files into another host?

EDIT: i mean transfer files without compressing via tar commands?

Yes, no reason that wouldn't work

I managed to migrate BitBangers from one server to another with 0 downtime. We use Mongo though.
Felt good man.

Shouldn't you run BGSAVE on redis first?

@Scuzz I try and avoid politics whenever possible. I've seen far too many arguments regarding one parties policies over the other. I do agree that the NHS shouldn't be privatised however. It will turn into the American Healthcare system if that were to happen. Although interestingly enough a friend of mine lives in Australia and got a job workin the G20 summit last week. Shared the lift with a couple of prime ministers, including our own David Cameron.
