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.

Regards,
Jan
