Licensing - Stand up a new server for upgrade

We'd like to start looking into standing up a 2nd server to migrate to with the latest version of Fusion on a new OS. I'm not sure how the Fusion license works. Are we only licensed for our one prod instance or do we have any Dev/DR licensing as well? Is there any option for a "trial" license or temporary license if not so we can stand up and migrate to a new system?

Hi
@NeoMatrixJR, thanks for reaching out.
When you buy a Fusion license, it comes with 3 entitlements. This allows you to stand up a production server, a backup server and a lab/test server. This is the
documentation for the Fusion License Entitlements.
Since you just have the one production server, you should be good to go.
If you do have problems getting your second server entitled, please contact Customer Service at
https://answerhub.nagios.com/support/s/ and they can help you straighten things out.
If you have non-technical questions about licensing, you can reach out to
[email protected].

Is there any way to copy the config or bulk-fuse all the servers from our existing instance to a DR or test instance?

Hello
@NeoMatrixJR,
Thanks for reaching out!
Currently, there is no way to copy the config or bulk-fuse all the servers from an existing machine via the browser.
However, there are API endpoints that could prove useful in accomplishing what you need.
You can find the details to the API in Fusion by navigating to
Help ->
REST API Docs ->
System Reference
I will submit a feature request for this as well!
If you have any other questions, comments, or concerns, feel free to reach out!
