Restoring A BigBlueButton Virtual Machine Image Back To A Linode VM, With IP Address Change Fix
00:01:20 Creating a new linode.
00:04:05 Checking which device node the boot volume is on.
00:04:35 Transferring the image from the backup server.
00:08:20 Rebooting the linode into the restored image.
00:10:50 Connecting back into the custom BigBlueButton
00:12:35 Audio not working in the test room.
00:13:35 Copying across and running my magical BBB ip fix script.
00:16:10 Now the audio is working.
00:17:35 Checking it also works on the mobile phone.
In this video I am showing how to restore the compressed image, that was created and backed up in the previous video, back onto a new Linode that is created for it. The process is more straightforward than the backup and it of course is performed again on the rescue mode that Linode provides for their virtual machines. When a BigBlueBUtton server is restored to a machine with a different IP address, then you will find that the audio does not work, because there are some config files that need to be changed, so I ended up having to write a script that does this change, in the various config files that have the ip address stored in them.
