[otrs] MySQL move from windows to Suse9.3

[Danie]

Hi Jared ,

I actually did a migration from one server to another just this morning 
, and it was amazingly simple :)

In Windows , stop your mysql database (so no writing possible to it) , 
then simply copy the *.MYI files from your win32 system to your Suse 
system ( thinks it's in /var/lib/mysql/otrs , just do a locate *.MYI)

Also , if you are running ArticleFS as your Storage module (like I do) , 
make sure to copy the existing data from your article directory as well 
to the new system.

If you need your Sysconfig Data , just backup through the SysConfig web 
module.

Just to add , my migration was from linux to linux , but presumably it 
should work the same.
