someone can export MRTG data so that there are no breaks in the graph =
data?
If you went between architectures (32bit and 64bit), you=92ll need to =
`rrdtool dump`, and implement a bit of batching. Other than that, you =
should just be able to transfer the RRAs as is. Transfer them a couple =
of hundred at a time, or as fast as you can manage within the limits of =
your disk IOPS, and then just have it timed to run between your updates. =
Took me a shell 3-liner to move 15k RRAs about 2 years ago.
