I have been using Content Server with authentication enabled on my local machine and had read several books with annotations made along the way. It works great and now I decided to move my library to a VPS (Ubuntu running on Amazon Lightsail, to be specific).

I successfully set up a new Content Server with an new Calibre library, and I can now import my books into it. However, annotations I made on the local machine do not show (it is expected) since the library and its authentication are both new.

The question I have is: what is the right way to migrate my library to the new Content Server? And how do I access my old highlights and notes made on the books?
