Okay so, in order to get past some bugs, I am planning on updating Gluu. This means exporting settings and clients and users and groups etc., uninstalling gluu, installing the latest version of Gluu, and importing everything. Zamil suggested this: > For now, I suggest dumping your work in the IdP, including LDAP and restoring the same after updating to the latest build. So, I could use some help in figuring out what commands I should use to export and import this data. Important points of the process: 1. I don't want to lose client IDs or secrets. They must not change. 2. All user data must be retained. 3. If I have to enter some Gluu settings manually, it's okay although not preferred. So.. for opendj I assume I export an LDIF of some sort. I'm not sure what to do for oxauth, or how to retain clients or gluu settings. Thanks for your help

Paul, >> I'm not sure what to do for oxauth, or how to retain clients or gluu settings. Most oxTrust and oxAuth configurations are inside LDAP & /opt/tomcat/conf/ If I were in your place I would install new Gluu Server in a separate VM with same hostname. Then: * Copy existing Gluu Server's configuration files ( /opt/tomcat/conf/ ) inside new Gluu Server. * Dump whole LDAP of old server. * Restore that dumped copy in new Gluu Server. Howto on LDAP restore & backup is available [here](http://opendj.forgerock.org/opendj-server/doc/bootstrap/admin-guide/#chap-backup-restore). * Check status of new Gluu Server.
