I am administering an ancient AsteriskNOW 2.0.2 PBX with Asterisk 1.8.15 and FreePBX 2.10.1.9, as a pro bono project for a state division of a national non-profit public-service organization. It works acceptably but we are doing a move to a new facility with better hardware and I really and truly want to take that opportunity to migrate the system to the latest stable FreePBX.
We have several dozen IP (SIP) phones scattered around the state, two PSTN interface boxes servicing 6 phone lines, a few dozen queues, and some other stuff, that would take weeks to re-create by hand in the new installation... a level of effort that as a practical matter just isn't going to happen.
Looking for advice on the best way to do the upgrade, and any tools available to automate at least most of the process. I did try (on a throwaway VirtualBox virtual machine that was well backed up on a revision control server) backing up from A.Now.202 and restoring to the latest stable FreePBX, which of course didn't work, not that I expected it to, and left me with a blank screen where the FreePBX screens used to be.
Anyone who can suggest a way ot ease this transition would be much appreciated.
Thanks...
Eric
