I did this recently but also changed the hostname and upgraded

RRD-files are architecture-specific in format, so if you go from
e.g. a 32-bit system to 64-bit you will need to convert all of your
rrd-files.

If your Xymon server changes IP, then you'll need to reconfigure
all of the clients reporting to the server. Plus any firewall
changes that might incur.

Other that that, doing a new install on the new server and then
copying all of the data- and configuration-files across should work
fine.
Well, I shall endeavor to try this again by the end of the week and
see if I can nail anything down. Knowing it should work is something.
I'm migrating from Solaris 9 to Solaris 10 at the same time, but not
sure if that should make any difference. I suppose there could be an
RRDTool version difference at the same time or something? I'd assume
both of them are 64-bit, as both Solaris definitely are.
