You missed the one obvious one - on the clients - you need to go into the
config files and make sure to configure in the server you want them to talk
to. You can actually set them to send to both servers until you are ready
and sure the new server is stable.
I am dong this right now with about 30 clients. Converting from a Solaris 9
implementation with 4.0 to a pair of RHEL5.2 64 bit servers with 4.2.3/
Next on my project list - get the bleeding ldap working for Xymon/ (Already
have the wiki entry on it - no joy so far)

The network tests etc. are run on the server side. I assume you have clients
already installed, reporting to the old server.

No, however you probably have the existing clients configured to send their
data to the old server. You can either:
1)Hope that everything works, and switch the IPs / hostname of your hobbit
server, tben it will receive the data
2)Enable the bbproxy task on the existing hobbit server, to proxy the data
the
clients send to the new server as well. When you are ready to switch, you
can
sync all the data across, and then just switch the IPs. You will need to
change things on the existing server so hobbitd listens on a different port
(e.g. 1985), and bbproxy listens on the normal port (1984), forwarding to
the
local hobbitd on port 1985, and the new hobbitd on port 1984 at the new IP.
