   If you want to use link mode and you don't want your old cluster
   to be modified when the new cluster is started, make a copy of the
   old cluster and migrate that with link mode. To make a valid copy
   of the old cluster, use <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>rsync</TT
> to create a dirty
   copy of the old cluster while the server is running, then shut down
   the old server and run <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>rsync</TT
> again to update the copy with any
   changes to make it consistent.
