Migrate centreon 2.8 to centreon 23.04

Hello everyone,

I've installed a new Centreon version 23.04 to replace Centreon 2.8. I'm wondering how I can transfer hosts and services from the old instance to the new one.

I attempted to use Clapi with the following commands: 
1. `./centreon -u admin -p centreon -e > backup.txt` to export the configuration.
2. `scp backup.txt` to copy the exported file.

3. `./centreon -u admin -p centreon -i backup.txt`

However, I'm facing an issue: I can see hosts and services in the parameters, but I'm not able to see the objects to supervise.

Can someone please assist me with this?

Hi @Paco ,

Edit /usr/share/centreon/www/install/php/Update-2.8.4.php file and execute manually SQL requests.

Then remove it and click on “Refresh”

Hi @Laurent 

I can’t find this path “ /usr/share/centreon/www/install/php/Update-2.8.4.php “ in the new centreon 23.04.

I don’t have the folder “install”.

Best regards

Hi @Paco if you don’t have the /usr/share/centreon/www/install on your new Centreon server (23.04.x), it means that you finished the update.

HI @Paco can you execute this SQL request on ‘centreon’ database:

ALTER TABLE `auth_ressource` ADD COLUMN `ar_sync_base_date` INT(11) DEFAULT 0

It will be hard to migrate from Centreon 2.8.2 to supported version.

How many host and services do you monitor?

I have 321 hosts and 324 services

I use only the Ping at the moment

Maybe you can export host, hosttemplates, services, servicetemplates, commands, groups and timeperiods using CLAPI and import them into your new Centreon.

Hi @Laurent 

I don’t know clapi very well, I can export one user, service or all configuration but for export all users I can’t find the command in the documentation.

Have you one command for example ?
