Greetings!
I'm upgrading from Big Brother to Hobbit after over 3 years on the old beast. The problem I'm having is moving the 'rrd' files from Solaris to AIX. It isn't just the naming convention...the file structure itself is apparently different. Has anyone done this or do I have to over-heat my brain trying to figure it out myself? <grin>
This is probably a question for the the 'rrdtool' folks, but since many people have upgrade from BB to Hobbit I thought this might be a good place to start.
Thanks!

Hi Jim
you'll have to dump / restore your RRD databases, something like this :
$ rrdtool dump foo.rrd > foo.xml (on the Solaris box)
$ rrdtool restore foo.xml foo.rrd (on the AIX box)

I never tried it myself, but I know you can dump the contents of a rrd file in a ascii file (xml??). I think you can also import it to a new rrd file.
