Query - Migrating bitbucket from one server to another

sudheer paidimarry

Hi There,

We are migrating our bitbucket server from one server to another server but the external database won't be changed. we will use the same database server.

Question 1: I'm following the below link to do the task. 

https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucketserver/migrating-bitbucket-server-to-another-server-776640406.html

As there's no database migration required, can I skip Step 2. Move the Bitbucket Server data to a different machine ?

Question 2: Is there any process to test the migration from one server to another? or else can we directly start migrating the production bitbucket by using steps suggested in above link?
