We want to reinstall Hobbit on a new server but would like to keep the
existing database as we have a long period of information that we would
like to keep(backup) and extend on to. Were are the database/information
stored on the current server and can we migrate it to a new server. Is
there also a way to backup the data periodicly?
Just copy the ~hobbit/data/ directory over to the new server (the
data/hist, data/rrd are the most important ones; data/histlogs and 
data/hostdata hold the detailed historical logs).

These are all plain files, so they are easily backed up.
