Backup my cacti

Post by jlazkano »

Hello everybody, I have two Cacti servers, one with Fedora and other with Debian.

They have problem with graphs, so the tecnical assistance will format the servers and install again.

But first of all, I want to backup all the information of the devices and all the devices tree (more than 100).

Is there any way to do that?

Thanks for all.

$ mysqldump -u<user> -p -r cacti.sql cacti

Then put the cacti.sql file somewhere safe.

RRD files are in the cacti/rra directory. Just copy them somewhere else...
