Transfer scheduled recording list between servers

I would like to migrate my scheduled recording list from one server to another. The only way I’ve found so far is to manually create a new recording on the new server and then cancel the recording on the old server, which is not very efficient. I assume there’s some recording list file somewhere on the server I could just copy over, but can’t find any documentation on this.

Short answer is you can not.

Longer answer, you can dump the recordings but when you import them the UID’s don’t match up and your recordings will go to unexpected series locations.

'/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex Media Server' --sqlite com.plexapp.plugins.library.db  ".dump media_subscriptions" >/plex/scheduled_recordings.sql

I suppose you could transfer the com.plexapp.plugins.library.db and com.plexapp.plugins.library.blobs.db but then you would have to do a lot of cleanup.
