There are few scripts and they should work more or less ok. I had problems running the conversion script, and i would advise against it - i mean, if it works on your config - great, but i had a lot of problems on my end so i eventually did things by hand.
Really, the best way is to do things from scratch, as you will end up with considerably more compact configuration. I spent some time migrating monitoring setup, but the services that were duplicated were ported over very fast. That was actually the 80% you refer to. The unique ones, per-host are what's the time-sink during the conversion, and i am still checking for those. 2016-04-09 13:58 GMT+02:00 Toussaint OTTAVI <t.ott...@bc-109.com>: > Hi, > > I'm new to this ML.
