I think I figured it out. For one thing, I did have the name of the MongoDB database wrong. Somehow I got the wires crossed there. The other thing I noticed was that the password_secret item, which is the salt for the passwords in the database, did need to be copied from the old server. After that, I logged in with a familiar users and all the configuration data was there. Not sure about the node-id. I did change it at one point, but I didn't get to the point where I was able to log in and see all the old config until after I made the other changes. As a test, I reverted to the original node id file (the one that was created when the new appliance was brought up) and rebooted. things continued to work. This seems to be a good start, so thanks for all the help. Chuck -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "graylog2" group.
