From docs/upgrade-to-430.txt: 1) Make sure you have a backup. It is not necessary to backup the data in the hist/, histlogs/, hostdata/ and rrd/ directories (if you use the default directory layout, then that means the entire data/ directory need not be backed up). 2) Configure Xymon 4.3.0 using a directory layout that is identical to your previous version. Make sure you keep the directory names exactly as they were in the version you are currently running, even though that may include "hobbit" in the directory name. 3) Build Xymon 4.3.0 (run "make") 4) Stop Hobbit (the current version). 5) Using the "bbcmd" utility from your current version, run then "./build/upgrade430.sh" script. I.e. run a command like ~hobbit/server/bin/bbcmd ./build/upgrade430.sh This will perform almost all of the file renaming and configuration file updates that are needed when going to version 4.3. A few updates cannot be done automatically, you will be notified what else is needed after the script completes. 6) Install Xymon 4.3.0 (run "make install").
