Migrate Database to other server

[Rene Behring]

Hey,

i want to switch to an other server with all the configurations, users, scans, reports and so on...
Is it enough to just copy var/lib/openvas/mgr/tasks.db to the other server? Or what else do i have to do?

Thanks,
Rene

For OpenVAS 6, this is what I found out, where information is stored:

/var/lib/openvas/mgr/tasks.db:
Tasks
Reports
Notes
Overrides
Targets
Port lists
Credentials
Scan configs
Alerts
Filters
Schedules
Slaves
Trashcan
My settings

directory structure:
Users /var/lib/openvas/users/
NVT Feeds /var/lib/openvas/plugins/
SCAP Feeds /var/lib/openvas/scap-data/
Cert Feeds /var/lib/openvas/cert-data/
Scanner Settings /etc/openvas/openvassd.conf

There are more directories under "/var/lib/openvas/", but I don't think
you need all of them for a migration. In OpenVAS 7 afaik, some data has
been migrated into the DB.

If you uploaded report formats then also copy

var/lib/openvas/openvasmd/report_formats/
etc/openvas/openvasmd/global_report_formats/

as for any other service not just single files
rsync -tPrlpogEAX /var/lib/openvas/ ***@new-host:/var/lib/openvas/

the same applies for samba, mysql, vnstat, smokeping......

Dear All,

Maybe we can try use glusterfs with define first partition disk with lvm I
think is better. Hope this can solve issue..

Thanks

I needed to do the same thing and when I asked a very helpful reply indicated that I should put the entire contents of /var/lib/openvas/ on the new computer. When completed, It was a duplicate of the old from an OpenVAS perspective.
