Setup

Yesterday I started moving from a Pi5 8gb to a Pi5 4gb to self-host Audiobookshelf, Photoprism and Immich. I want to move from Ubuntu Desktop to ubuntu server to lower the head room required. When I checked I was using 3.9gb out of 8gb of ram. On the Pi5 4gb running the various services I was using 1gb of ram, but that’s without photos, videos and various audio files.

Learning Outcome

The desired learning outcome from this experiment is to migrate the services from one machine to another. The easiest solution would be to swap the card from one Pi to the other but I want to learn how too move Immich, Photoprism and Audiobookshelf from one system to another. In theory I know how to do this. In practice I need to streamline the process.
