Hi, I just deployed a multi-site discourse and now I want to programmatically migrate all my discourse sites (almost 20) to the new server.

Is possible to specify the _site/database_ when calling `./launcher enter app` or `discourse restore filename.tar.gz`?

Thank you in advance!

Yes you need to pass the database name when you call the script or enter the console. Search here for rails\_db in other multisite topics.

Perfect, I can use `RAILS_DB=dbname restore filename.tar.gz` and works like a charm!

Thank you!
