[mrtg] moving MRTG to new machine

[Amr M. Salah]

Dear Farhan, 

 

Thanks a lot for your help and I'd like to thank every that tried to help
me, 

I solved the problem by a simple (and non professional also:-))) idea; I
removed all files from the www folder (the working directory of generated
HTML pages)

I just kept all customized pages I had created before, and that's it. I am
keeping it under test for 4 days till now, it is working fine,

The only problem that I face now that I lost the monthly and annual history,
but is not a big problem here 

 

 

Thanks lot again, also I hope to hear your ideas, if it were another
professional solution, so we can use in feature problems

Dear Eng.\ Farhan

 

I did the migration with aid of your advice. MRTG now is working (I can say
it is working because I see the last update date and time on each page of
the html output is getting updated each interval) 

But the graphs is only straight lines not a graph with ups and downs 

Attached here a screen shoot of what I got, which not that was getting
before 

 

Any ideas for help?

 

Thanks on advance

Dear Amr

 

Its not a big task you can perform this activity very easly by follow few
steps

 

1) just take a backup of yr cfgs , crond , .logs files or if your are using
.rrd base mrtg you also need to take backup of CGI files and rrds. make sure
the backup copy you hv taken not corrpted after traffering in into another
system. to ensure that just tar all files on existance mrtg srv and then
download it.

 

install a new mrtg if you are using centos mrtg is the builtin package just
install it.

 

put your tar archive there untar it and just place files and directories on
their places 

 

for further you can contact with me

Hello every body, 

 

Please, I need your advice in such an issue, which is moving MRTG to new
machines

 

To make it more clear, I have a running version of MRTG and I need to move
it to new machine with all of its configurations and files 

What shall I do? more over, can I upgrade this installation after migration

 

 

Thanks a lot in advance
