[Opensim-users] Matching, mapping user UUIDs between servers

[Edmund Edgar]

Hi Rick.

I haven't worked with avatar data before, but you may also need to find
files with the name 7bf01a6a-b906-42a3-a6ab-8bc20e840a4d_whatever in the
filename and rename them 6f500ef7-fafe-4909-94d6-057fb4e3cada/_whatever.

For reference, this is the script I use horse around with LSL script UUIDs
- we run this after we generate IAR files from the scripts we have in Git
to make sure they're all consistent. There's both a sed command and a mv
command involved.
https://github.com/sloodle/sloodle_development_tools/blob/master/opensim_sync/fixuuid.sh

When we need to rebuild the IAR, we do:
tar zcvf /tmp/sloodle.iar archive.xml inventory/* assets/*

I think it would be the same with OARs. Beyond that I don't think there
should be any particular voodoo involved in rebuilding it.

HTH, let us know how you get on.
