Has anyone performed this upgrade? I'm concerned about the name change and directory/file name changes. I have a production system but no test system to test the upgrade. Only the default directory for the installation and the web server URL is changed. So if you keep these the same, nothing will change.
I upgrade some of my monitor servers. I moved all data to the new default installation directory and did a make install. I also changed the username from hobbit to xymon. For the url, I configured apache to redirect all hobbit url's to xymon (/hobbit -> /xymon and idem for the cgi urls).
These are the basic steps. Actually, I use subversion for the upgrade, but the idea is the same.
