1. It's apparently version 1.0.2
2. It's writing current status into status.dat, and there are numerous logfiles 
found under /var/log/icinga/archives, however the logfile are only about 3 
months old and we can query through the UI for information as far back as a 
year. So there's data somewhere else.. so I'm wonder what "and such" means in 
"- writing the status.dat and such"
3. The debug shows me no relevant data regarding where it stores old data.
4. When installing IDOutils/MySQL, how do I ensure that the previously stored 
data is imported into the SQL-database? Is that handled automatically? We need 
the history for trend-reports and comparisons by year.

I've had the privilege to assume control over an old Icinga installation. 
However, this installation seems to have been done without PostgreSQL, MySQL 
and no IDOUtils...

So I'm wondering, how can I trace/see where it's writing it's information and 
to which kind of database? It's installed on Ubuntu 9.04 through repository, so 
it's version 1.0.4 or something like that old.


And how would I go about to do an upgrade/migration to a MySQL/PostgreSQL?

if the usual place of the cfg file shows no sign or data , did you try enabling 
the debug option to include all data and seeing might appear in that ?

check icinga.cfg and the loaded event brokers. if there are none the 
core keeps doing it the classic way - writing the status.dat and such.

1.0.4 does not exist, this happened to be 1.2.0 straight up. you can 
verify the version by checking within the logs where a reload causes an 
entry too, or the classic ui would reflect that too in the left corner.

by installing icinga-idoutils as package and resolving its dependencies, 
next to enabling it in icinga.cfg (refer to the idoutils readme braucght 
by the debian package).

likewise described here for debian:

Is it possible to use LConf with MySQL instead of DBD?

DBD/BDB is the backend from LDAP and not a standalone DB, so you can't use 
LConf (what is a _L_DAP _Conf_iguration).

So, you can't. Take a look on NagiosQL, or. NagiosAdmin, or Centreon etc. pp.

Note: I understand DBD is the storage for LDAP, and one doesn't work without
the other so, moot point. I'm using Icinga so, the goal is to create an
interop between Icinga and a back-end configuration storage. 

Thanks for the input.
