Need details on where views & dashboards are stored

Hello,

I have an old Nagios XI server on R1.5 that has dashboards and views on it. This older version uses both MySQL and Postgres. Can you tell me where the views and dashboards are stored as to if they are in Postgres or MySQL and which table ?

Also, for Nagios XI 5.4.4, can you supply the same information ?

I would like to see if I can dump that information from the old R1.5 instance and import it into our 5.4.4 instance.

Thank you.

The schemas can change between versions, so what you are asking about is not recommended. However, there is an alternative. Install R1.5 on a new server, do the import, and then upgrade. Here's the download link for R1.5: https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... rsions.php (I can't be more specific since there are at least 2 R1.5s).
