Migrate Ezeelogin database to RDS / remote SQL instance

How to Migrate Ezeelogin database to rds / remote SQL instance 


Synopsis:

To initiate the migration process, we'll begin by backing up the existing Ezeelogin database. Next, we'll proceed to establish a new RDS MySQL instance, grant privileges, and restore the previously backed-up database. And update the db_host parameter in the ez.conf file.


              Adhere to the following steps to transfer the database to an RDS or Remote Mariadb instance.

Step 1.  Take the backup of the Ezeelogin database with mysqldump command and retrieve the Ezeelogin database name, database username, and database password. 

               Run the following command to retrieve the DB credentials.

root@ezeelogin:~# php /usr/local/ezlogin/eztool.php -show_db_credentials

              Enter the Ezeelogin administrator password, to reveal the DB credentials.

 

Step 2. Take the MySQL database backup by running the following command.

root@ezeelogin:~# mysqldump ezlogin_databasename > ezlogin_databasename_backup.sql -p

 

Step 3. Create a new RDS MySQL instance and create an empty database by logging into MySQL and grant the database with the MySQL database user and password of the Ezeelogin database. 

root@ezeelogin:~# mysql -u masteruser -p

root@ezeelogin:~# create database ezeelogin_databasename;

root@ezeelogin:~# create user ezlogindatabaseuser;

root@ezeelogin:~# grant all privileges on ezlogin_dbname.* to ezlogin_dbusername@'%' identified by 'ezlogin_dbpassword'; 

(replace with your ezeelogin db details)

root@ezeelogin:~# flush privileges;

 

Step 4. Restore the database backup using the following command. You should replace  MySQL logins with yours.

root@ezeelogin:~#  mysql -h database-1.crsj8b4u8ggw.ap-south-1.rds.amazonaws.com -u masteruser -p ezlogin_databasename < ezlogin_databasename_backup.sql

 

Step 5:  Replace the " db_host " with the hostname of the new RDS instance on  /usr/local/etc/ezlogin/ez.conf file.

Skip this step if you are using remote SQL instance.

root@ezeelogin:~# nano /usr/local/etc/ezlogin/ez.conf

Step 6. Login to Ezeelogin GUI, EZSH shell, and verify the working of Ezeelogin.

 


For Reference:

Configure Ezeelogin on AWS RDS

Configure Jumpserver to use SSL for AWS RDS

Can we use the same instance since it is multi-AZ
