RE: [hobbit] Hobbit directory structure

That's fine but I still need to incorporate the old settings and data
into the new setup.

 

Thanks,

Instead of trying to inspect everything one by one I strongly suggest
just blowing everything away (backing up your ~hobbit dir for recovery
later) and compiling it.

That's just my opinion =)

I just installed Hobbit using yum on a new system, unfortunately I
already had my /home/hobbit structure from the previous system (which
crashed).  Well, it appears that yum installed Hobbit quite differently
than I had originally installed.

It appears that I need to:

#----Copy data
cp -ar /home/hobbit/data/hist/*        /var/lib/hobbit/data/hist
cp -ar /home/hobbit/data/histlogs/*    /var/lib/hobbit/data/histlogs
cp -ar /home/hobbit/data/rrd/*         /var/lib/hobbit/data/rrd
#----Copy configuration 
cp -a /home/hobbit/server/etc/bb-hosts /etc/hobbit
cp -a /home/hobbit/server/etc/hobbit-alerts.cfg /etc/hobbit
cp -a /home/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitlaunch.cfg  /etc/hobbit
cp -a /home/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitpasswd      /etc/hobbit 
#--->Modify existing instead!
#--->cp -a /home/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg  /etc/hobbit

Still run under user hobbit?  If so, what directory structure is needed?
Anything else I might be missing?
