Hello,
we're using subscription version of Observium. Time has come to move the Observium from old to new mashine, do is't possible to to just copy /opt/observium from old mashine to new and make it work with all the history of graphs saved. ? Also we're using weathermap, is it possible by doing this way (just moving Observium) to save weathermap interface numbers ?
Thanks

You need to move 3 things, 1. config.php 2. the rrd-directory 3. the MySQL-database
so make a database dump, import it in the new machine and copy the rrd-directory and config.php That should be all for Observium itself. For weathermap I guess you only need the images and the config-files?

hello,
Thank you for reply.
so overall seems procedure like that:
1) copy config.php from old to new 2) copy the rrd folder from /opt/observium/rrd to new machine 3) on the old machine: mysqldump -p observium > observium_old.sql 3.1) import that file to new machine and do the mysql use observium; source observium_old.sql. 4) copy the weathermap directory: /opt/observium/html/weathermap to new machine. 4.1) add weathermap cron
Any thing more ? Thanks:)
