xport ??? Thats wrong.
The name (and description in the man page) is a little bit misleading
("rrdxport - Export data in XML format based on data from one or several RRD")

You should use rrdtool dump and rrdtool restore to convert databases.

rrddump - dump the contents of an RRD to XML format
rrdrestore - restore the contents of an RRD from its XML dump format

So you should run:

rrdtool dump rrd_on_old_host.rrd > rrd_on_old_host_dumped.xml

and restore them on the new host via:

rrdtool restore rrd_on_old_host_dumped.xml rrd_on_new_host.rrd

Easy, isn't it? ;)

Hope that helps,

Andreas.
