RE: Server Migration

Chris,

Because of changes in the database, I think the best thing you can do is:
- Apply the updates 0.8.1 and 0.8.2 on the test server (See the documents
UPGRADE.win32.txt in both packages)
- Backup the database from the test server:
c:\mysql\bin\mysqldump.exe --opt -u root -p<password> jffnms >
c:\jffnms.backup.mysql
- Install JFF 0.8.2 on the new server and import the backupfile with:
c:\jffnms\docs\upgrade\mysql> c:\mysql\bin\mysql.exe -u root -p<password>
jffnms < <Put backup Filename here>
- Copy the RRD-folder from the old to the new server to keep the data.

Succes,

Ruud

I've done migration plenty of times, all of them on Linux but the idea
is similiar.

* Copy RRD files to new host
* Copy config files to new host
* Remove cron jobs
* dump the mysql database using mysqldump
* Copy dump to new host
* Re-copy RRD files (if you're doing the double rsync trick)
* Import dump into new database
* Check permissions, they're probably wrong somewhere
* Re-enable cron jobs

There is no simple way.  There are two hard ways:
 1) Take some of the JFFNMS performance code and stick it into your
 portal code
 2) Make your portal call evil hidden calls via the satellite hooks.

I've personally done both, 2 is much cleaner.  Both will take a fair bit
of work.  There is an email (from me) about how I did it.
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.network.jffnms.user/4104

I'm very pleased to say in that email I used the words "evil" and
"lobotomize" multiple times, consider that you've been warned once
by me now and once by me 6 months ago.

Field "state" in table "SLAS" updated to 127

Re: Performance Graphs without Login

You can always just pass the user & password via the URL.

Like:

http://127.0.0.1/view_performance.php?interface_id=526&want_graph=traffic&logout=1&user=YourUsername&pass=YourPassword

This will return a PNG graph.

You can do this on the backend of your portal, so the User and pass will never 
be visible to your customer.
You only need a table with the user/interface_id mappings

Re: Field "state" in table "SLAS" updated to 127

Thanks for reporting it.

You can change the size of the state field by hand, and I'll keep this email so 
I remember to put the fix in the next version.
