Hello, you might find this useful: https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/SpacewalkHostnameRename For transfering actual data, you can use this list (make sure not to mess with permissions and when you are restoring on a target system use restorecon -vr <dirs> to fix issues with SELinux context): https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/SpacewalkBackup#Directories And also you need to move your DB, but do not know if there is something else needed besides: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/backup.html Others will help here.
