Hey Joel,

This isn't really hard, but if you are not comfortable with mysql or scripting, you probably just want to reinstall on a different computer or VMPlayer instance.

You need to install the database schema on some remote host. First install MySQL 5.0.22 or later on the remote host. You will have to create a user (or use root) and allow remote access. You will need to edit zeneventbuild to talk to your remote host. You then need to run zeneventbuild:

   $ zeneventbuild someuser somepassword

Next, you need to point ZenEventManager to your remote instance. You can do this by changing the mysql properties. You can access the properties of the ZenEventManager using Zope's object interface.

Add "manage" to the URL to access this interface.  For example:

   http://zenoss:8080/zport/dmd/manage

Navigate on the left to ZenEventManager. Select the "properties" tab on the right. Update the parameters of hostname, port number, login, password, etc.
