migrating observium to a new server
Is anyone aware of any documentation to migrate an observing installation to a new server? I am moving from CentOS 6 to CentOS 7 for security and PHP reasons. If anyone has any pointers, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks,
Shawn Faulkingham
Copy MySQL db, config.php and RRD folder.
At a push you can copy config.php and RRD folder and just re-add devices. You lose database history and logs though.

I have completed this, and it seems to be working; discovery.php and poller runs at the command line. I can see my history in the graphs; however, nothing is being added/recorded. Anything I can check to make sure that my graphing works?

What do you mean by added/recorded?

Sounds like the cron jobs are not (correctly) installed.

The data for the graphing is not coming through. It says all the devices are up, but no data (network, cpu, etc). Cron log shows the jobs running.

Have you checked the permissions on the rrd dir?
If you run a poller manually, does it update the rrds & your graphs show a single data point?

Yeah, probably permissions, though this is odd when the cron jobs run as root by default!
./poller.php -h <hostname> -d
Will maybe give you error messages somewhere when it tries to update the RRDs.

That was it. For some reason I had all the directories owner:group to apache:apache. Changed to root:root and it is recording data again. Thanks for the help. Pretty easy move except for the perms.
