This might not be as dire as it seems :-)

1. First, tar up your zenhome so we can get back to the current state if need be. 2. Create a temp dir somewhere and copy zenhome/etc, zenhome/perf and zenhome/var/Data.fs to it. 3. blow away your zenoss install and install again. Either version 1.0.x or 1.1.
4. Tar this entire clean install just for safety's sake
5. Copy the perf and Data.fs from step 2 into the appropriate places in the new install, blowing away the new clean zenhome/perf and zenhome/var/Data.fs. Don't do anything to etc yet, leave the clean one there. If you went with 1.1 then do the same with zenhome/etc, otherwise let's not touch etc just yet.
6. If you installed 1.1 then zenmigrate run --commit
7. Bring up zenoss

Let me know what issues you run into and we'll work from there. If you went with 1.0.x then you can probably copy your files from the backed-up etc directory to the new etc directory except for zope.conf. I suspect that the newer zope.conf might not play nice with the older version of zope.

zenbackup.py?


Normally I do back it up by hand before upgrading, but for some reason this time I didn't. Two nights ago would have been a backup to tape (done by Veritas) but looking at the backups for some reason /opt isn't getting backed up. Oh joy...
