Hi

I want to do the same. any ideas ?

Is it a case of installing the new zabbix and telling it to use the old zabbix database ?
is there a document with the update steps in it ?

Cheers

Greetings,

Unfortunately, it is not quite that simple. To perform the update, you will need to perform the database upgrades manually, then you can drop the new zabbix_server into place. Before you fire up the zabbix_server, you will need to go through the UI and ensure that your items are using the updated keys. Most of the old Zabbix-1.0 keys will continue to work, but they have been deprecated and may be removed in future releases. Having said that, however, there are some item keys which have already been removed.

Hi everybody!

I'd like to update from zabbix 1.0 to 1.1.2 too, it seems to be not very easy...
Anybody try to change the database manually? What's the result?
I want to keep all my datas, templates and graphs from previous version, it's possible or not?

If someone update successfully zabbix, please tell us how to do!

thanks!!!

Hi,

Where can I find a DB upgrade patch for zabbix 1.0 to 1.1.2?
I can't see it in the zabbix-1.1.2 package (/upgrades/dbpatch/)?

Thanks for your help!
