Following my instructions here, I was able to transfer most everything from one EC2 instance to a new EC2 instance; however, I was unable to get the result I hoped for with database transfer. Here is what went wrong.
When I transferred the databases, my dataset groups showed up, but the groups show that there is no data in them; however, when I navigated directly to a dataset I had before, it was actually still present.
Other worries I have:
This transfer was done between versions of CKAN that were the same (2.8.3 2020-03 version through AWS Marketplace). I was trying to simulate what it would be like to transfer between two different versions. I feel like transferring the templates and base folders between different versions might not go as smooth because of changes the new version may have. We may have to get more granular on what to transfer (e.g. only transfer the promoted image, then change the file that references it instead of transferring the templates and base directories.
Our new extensions don't transfer with the current instructions. We would need to transfer those and add them to the plugins variable in the CKAN config.

There is a PR to update the docs with instructions for properly transfering files and extensions over (including base and template folders).
The issue still remains, however, because the datasets did not show up as they should last time I tried to transfer them (see first bullet point above).
