Import and Update
Step 2 options only show when Advanced mode is enabled. This step controls which tables will be included in the install and the table
character set and collation type. The tables tab shows the original table names with the number of rows and size.
By default, all tables will be imported and updated during the install process. If a table is not imported then it cannot be updated. The update
process performs a full scan on the imported table finding all old URLs and server paths and updating them with the new paths of the new server.
The update process will also include all "Search and Replace" options found in Step 3.
