If you want the graphed data, you'll need to move your RRD files too.
Are you changing the O/S on the new server? If that is a yes, then
depending on how you are changing the O/S (upgrade vs. complete switch),
moving the RRD files gets very tricky. A complete switch to the O/S
means you can't just copy the RRD files. If no O/S change then be sure
to grab the other files under <install dir>/data and don't miss the rrd
sub directory, or you'll lose your graphs.

When I moved servers (long long ago, dust covered memory) you should
just
need hist/logs/histlogs for the data. Configuration is in etc.
Therefor if
you simply transport ~hobbituser/server and ~hobbituser/client you
should be
set.

In order to preserve the current information, what files/directories
do I
need to move to the new system?
What permissions do I need to worry about?
I want to keep the RRD history data for the graphs also.
I am running Xymon 4.3.0-0.beta2.
Is there a newer version that I should be running?
