I did a test run on this, and everything worked as far as history, but the RRD files did not work. When you would click on the magnifying glass, it would just go to a blank screen. Is there anything special we have to do to carry over the RRD?

The data files haven't changed, so yes - rsync'ing those to the new
server should keep all of your history.
