https://community.hpe.com/t5/server-management-systems/installing-6-from-scratch-w-new-db-mxnode-save-systems/m-p/4605105#M40427 I want to install version 6 from scratch and also use a new db server. Will there be any issues if I use mxnode to export all the devices and then import them all back in? I am not worried about custom reports etc... About the only thing major I will have to do is to get the EVA's added back in correctly. <BR /><BR />You think this will work?

I will give this a shot after I get 6 installed. It's going to be nice to finally be off the SQL2000 server.
