Note: No passwords will be ported to any new discourse site. The password hash functions are not the same so porting them would not work.

All users will need to do the 'reset or lost password thing' on the new discourse site. I do not want to spam the world with a mass "reset your password for discourse email" if we decide to go public.

Please keep in mind, if you do it now (update your password on the discourse site), you will have do to it again later, because I plan to dump the discourse DB in a few days and run the whole migration again.

I have learned a few things from the test migration, so I will change the migration script and run it again after this test migration is complete (I think in one more day, the first test run will be done).

This is only a test run to smoke out the goblins, alligators, and vampires hiding in the migration shadows Smilie

FYI Only: I have started another test run on a different server using a modified migration script, so I'm actually doing two initial test migration runs at the moment. Plus, I need to get very good at docker, so I wanted to do it all from scratch again. In this second parallel run, I wrote some initial new code for some of our custom BBCODE and changed the way vB forums are converted to discourse categories.

I'm sure I will find more odd BBCODE issues and unexpected issues when testing various migration paths.

FYI Status, for the post replies migration on test bed 1

SYNOPSIS

       #include <tss/platform.h>
       #include <tss/tcpa_defines.h>
       #include <tss/tcpa_typedef.h>
       #include <tss/tcpa_struct.h>

       TSS_RESULT Tspi_TPM_AuthorizeMigrationTicket(TSS_HTPM	       hTPM,		TSS_HKEY hMigrationKey,
						    TSS_MIGRATE_SCHEME migrationScheme, UINT32*  pulMigTicketLength,
						    BYTE**	       prgbMigTicket);

DESCRIPTION

       Tspi_TPM_AuthorizeMigrationTicket is used by the owner to authorize a target public key for migration. This mean sthat when a system is set
       up, the owner can decide that all archives should be done on a particular server. Then as keys are created, the user can pick one of  these
       servers	for  the  target  of the migration of their keys, if they wish. This provides one of the two authorizations necessary to migrate a
       key.

PARAMETERS

   hTPM
       Handle of the TPM object

   hMigrationKey
       Handle of the object representing the migration key.

   migrationScheme
       Flag indiating the migration scheme to be used.

   pulMigTicketLength
       Recieves the length (in bytes) of the prgbMigTicket parameter.

   prgbMigTicket
       Recieves a pointer to thememory block containing the migration ticket blob.

RETURN CODES

       Tspi_TPM_AuthorizeMigrationTicket returns TSS_SUCCESS on success, otherwise one of the following values are returned:

       TSS_E_INVALID_HANDLE
	      Either hTPM or hMigrationKey is not a valid handle.

       TSS_E_INTERNAL_ERROR
	      An error occurred internal to the TSS.
