WP Multisite: Migrating server, IP, internal domain, DNS

Hello,

Looks like there ARE references to the Domain in the DB, though apparently their locations are not predictable, leading to the use of this:

I think for Prudence’ Sake I’m just going to do everything at once (rather than try a DNS Switcheroo at the very end): Take snapshot on Old. change DNS on New, build fresh single WP instance, promote to Multisite, restore snapshot into it.

Just reporting back….

That’s what I did last evening and this morning. All up and running on new RHEL9/PHP8 VM with new IP but same old DNS! Migration complete.
