How to migrate data to a renamed instance? #924

Open 0lionelzhang0 opened 2 months ago

0lionelzhang0 commented 2 months ago

Hello,

We have packet/parameter data for a Yamcs instance and would like to rename the instance. What would be the best way to have the old data live under the new instance name? Is there a way to easily do this or replay packets from one instance into another?

Thank you, Lionel

Unfortunately we do not have yet an API call for that.

But usually you can just rename the data directory mv <old-instance>.rdb <new-instance>.rdb.

Yamcs should be stopped when you do that and it's always good to have a backup.

Got it, thanks!
