Comment (by ryandesign):
Now that I have power again I can work on this again. Today I prioritized
getting the buildbot system up and running again with everything except
for the 10.15 worker. Maybe tomorrow I will work on getting 10.15 back
online.
I worked on transferring the earlier OS versions first because
reinstalling earlier OS versions is more difficult. (Installer
certificates expire, making OS and Xcode installation more tedious.) If
the old SSD failed completely at some point during the recovery process, I
wanted to have the difficult-to-restore OS versions done via cloning and
leave the easy-to-restore OS versions to be done by Time Machine.
Fortunately the old SSD hasn't failed completely yet and is still letting
me read most data so hopefully I can do the 10.15 restore by cloning as
well.
I already had other VMs running 10.6 and 10.9 on network storage that I
could boot to, run a contemporaneous version of CCC, and clone the disk
from the failed SSD to the new one. I don't have an existing other VM for
10.15. I plan to make one, then do the cloning. Cloning from a different
OS version might work but I'm not sure so I'd rather play it safe, and it
would be good to have that other 10.15 VM anyway for other reasons.
