Transfering labs to new server

Post by tjohnson2456 » Sun Jan 22, 2023 5:03 pm

I am trying to move my Cisco SDWAN Lab (vmange, vbond, vsmart, hubs, and IOS routers) to a server at work. I copied the following to a USB Stick to do the transfer
/opt/unetlab/addons/
/opt/unetlab/tmp/
/opt/unetlab/labs/
/opt/unetlab/evedb.gz

When I move the files to the new server, and place them in the exact directory locations. I can see the lab, however, all of the devices start up as if they were brand new. None of the configurations that I had in my SDWAN controllers and hub devices were persistant, and in the IOS routers, only what was in the lab startup configs were there, not the most current ones that were saved as part of the virtual router when doing a copy run start.
Is there a way to transfer the labs as a whole, with all of the configurations?

your new EVE seems has not correct user POD assigned.
Admin user always on the new eve is POD 0
Check your backup tmp foder, what content it has?

and for such support best way is to join in the EVE Live support chat.
Use your gmail account or create new chat account with own email.
