Export for single devices

[uclara]

Hi,

we want to implement a 3-tier architecture for Cacti. One developement, one test and one or more production instances.

So we want to configure new devices (and releated graphs and other details) in developement. When the configuration are done, we want to export this device and import this in our testenviroment. After successful test we want to export it again and import it in the production enviroment.

It would be nice to have a function that can export one single device and all releated things, like rrd's, source configurations, graph configurations ... (with checkboxes to select or not the rrd's).
A import function has to reindex this device to avoid collisions of indexes.

Best regards
Ulli

Bad news: this is currently not possible on a per device base. Cacti supports export/import of templates only.
And due to the autoincrementing mysql tables, you will generally run out of sync when using the raw table data. You may try to explain in more detail, why you need exactly this feature
