rrd architecture

[jlim0930]

I am moving our cacti installation from a solaris box to a bigger linux box (rhel4)

i have created new devices on the new install and setup graphs and moved over the rra files from the old installation over to the new one and made sure that the numbers match up.

now when the cronjob runs i am getting

ERROR: This RRD was created on other architecture
ERROR: This RRD was created on other architecture

is there any way to resolve this without losing data ?

i have tried the rrdtool dump and restore but i am getting errors on it as well.

the rrdtool on the old server is 1.0 and on the new server it is 1.2

[jlim0930]

went ahead and compiled the 1.0 version of rrdtools on the new host.

rrdtool dump from the old to an xml file then rrdtool restore using 1.0 binary on the new host to generate the rrd then moved it over to the rra directory and it worked.

There was a BUG in this procedure at least until 1.2.11. Should have been solved by 1.2.12 and above. Else, please post a bug against the rrdtool's bugtrack list at http://www.rrdtool.org.
