This should be done AFTER osgeo6 stops hosting any service,
so AFTER its containerized version takes its place, right ?

I think that's the very first step to complete, probably worth its own
thread to not mix it with the planning of physical movements.

Moving containers from a machine to another implies a change in the
public IP address of the service, correct ? So we should also factor
in the downtime due to DNS propagation. We should plan for it
beforetime to have a quick way to update them (lowering TTL) - doing
DNS via Ansible should help - see https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/3188
