How do I copy DT session data from one server to another.

I stood up a new dyanTrace Server today. I already copied the System profiles from the old server to the new server and now I want to copy all the data. I do not care about any data that may be on the new server. Do I just grab all the folders under \server\sessions\stored\.. and copy them to the new server?

If your server is started under a different user in both environments, make sure that you set the permissions of the copied folder. Otherwise the data will not be available for the new system and the server will also not be able to automatically purge it when it runs out of storage.

Yes - copy that folder. That will copy all stored sessions as well as the "continuos session storage" over to the new server.

I'm not just talking about the manually saved sessions, but the "on-line" data as well.
