I don't see why you can't just copy the RRD files from 'frame' to this new server. You might need to rename some of the files and/or create some new subdirectories, but it should work. Why don't you startup gmetad with the new setup, take a look at the created file system structure, and see about how to migrate the historic data to the new server?
