| The databases should have the records in the mysql database table.
If the DB server (mysql) installed in your new server is of the same version that in the old server, after copying the databases, you only need to restart the mysql process in the new server.
Otherwise, you have to take the backup (in .sql format) of all databases using mysqldump , then restore it in the new server.

| If the Mysql version of the source and destination server are the same, then you can simply copy the entire /var/lib/mysql from the source server and paste it in the destination server.
Otherwise the best method is to take the database dump of all the databases and restore them in the destination server.
