NetXMS Support Forum

Hi,

I have a 9GB Sql Server database, and I'm using express edition.
I would like to migrate to Mysql (or antoher opensource database) without losing all data and configuration.

is it possible to migrate from Sqlserver to Mysql.
What is the better way?

any suggestion?
Thanks in advance.

nxdbmgr - NetXMS utility for database operations has built-in mechanism for database migration.

nxdbmgr migrate <source>

where source is the name of netxms configuration file that points to the database you are migrating from. There's a number of options that allow to skip DCI data, etc and it's possible to migrate DCI data afterwards after starting NetXMS with the new database.

There's an outdated wiki post on that, it does not list all possible options: https://wiki.netxms.org/wiki/How_to_migrate_to_another_database
