i guess that's a rather rare use case. i have various installations in my dev area, but never migrated data around. > How can I migrate my installation (configuration, data stored in > mysql, data stored in rrd's, etc) without losing data? obviously you should have backups. if not, check the docs/wiki. https://wiki.icinga.org/display/howtos/Backup regarding mysql - mysqldump and mysql shell client should likely be your friends. depending in your setup, you'll find the according databases in it to dump and restore. regarding rrds - those are bound to the binary architecture. so if you're changing it during migration, your rrds will remain broken. alternate methods for migration should be found on the rrdtool documentation itsself. i guess, you're using pnp4nagios - likely you want to migrate its configuration then too. oh, and don't copy binary files around. that won't be fun on the new system. depending on the installation method of icinga/addons, paths may change too. probably you should note that before starting it. package specific locations are documented on the wiki (at least those known from official sources). other than that - good luck. ps: if you've sucessfully migrated, you might want to add a new howto to the wiki for other community members looking for the same question. create an icinga user if not already existing (https://wiki.icinga.org/display/community/Create+an+Issue#CreateanIssue-CreateUser) and start in https://wiki.icinga.org/display/howtos/Home > > Thanks. > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > How ServiceNow helps IT people transform IT departments: > 1.
