Out of curiosity.

What happens if you “copy” everything from the old node to the new.

But keep old node as is, I wouldn’t risk turning bot of them online at the same time. Maybe the lightning network explodes.

But how I see it, it’s almost risk free.

Turn off node, copy everything needed, recover LN on new node, if it works, perfect. If it does t you have your old node and you can try again.

Isn’t this how it works?

I would go as far as sync blockchain again, don’t copy it.

I’m looking into a few different directions (including possibly changing from Umbrel to Start9) on a freshly synced node, then copying LND over.

But I want to learn from someone who has done exactly this, so I don’t miss any steps.
