      I recently purchased an SG-3100 to replace my old hardware running pfSense CE. Through export/import and some XML editing I've got everything working (interface naming and VPNs weren't fun), but the one thing I can't get to work is the old RRD data. I hate losing years of data, but trying to import it from the old box doesn't seem to work. RRD only shows from when I set up the 3100.

      I tried exporting everything (with RRD data) and just RRD on the old box. Is there some magic step to get this to work? I'm not changing names of interfaces/VLANs. This is just a move to new hardware.

        Mmm, the RRD files are not NIC specific. I wouldn't have expected a problem there.

        Is it re-creating the files in /var/db/rrd when you import it?

          Yes, I've tried deleting all the .rrd files in that folder, repeated the import of just the RRD Data from the old box with pfSense CE into the SG-3100.

          I can see the .rrd files get created in the folder, but still no data appearing on RRD Summary or Traffic Totals.
