Changing URLs of Applications without Re-install

Thanks for the hints @juliencognito & @Genma, I’ll have a look as soon as I have time.
Does the sql dump include the actual files or just the path and permissions / sharing of the files ?

By the way, is there any (dis-)advantage of having subdomains (e.g. cloud.mydomain.com) rather than sublevels (e.g. mydomain.com/cloud) ?
