NAGIOS XI configuration Snapshot Import

Hello,
I blocked on migration between 2 Nagios XI server:

We do successfull migration from Nagios Core to Nagios XI, that is good documented.

After Migration in Nagios XI we need change manually lot of services to have good configuration.

And Now we want to migrate the NAGIOS XI configuration to the final NAGIOS XI Production Server.

But there is any simple possibility to import the snapshot configuration (save in /usr/local/nagiosxi/nom/checkpoints/nagioscore) to the new server.
We need to untar the file on new server and import the untar files manually one by one.

The good way is to add possibility to import directly in the NagiosXI interface the snapshot configuration from other Nagios XI server

In the Interface it's possible to export the file on PC , but not possible to import snapshot !

Regards
Guillaume

You can backup your "old" XI server by following the steps, outlined in this document:

Move the backup to your new XI server, and restore from the backup (follow the same document).

Hope this helps.
