How to Migrate Kiwi Syslog Server

airsun

There are 3 things that you need to consider when migrating Kiwi Syslog Server:

1. Configuration - to back them up, simply open the Kiwi Syslog Server Manager and click "File -> Export Settings to INI" .
2. Logs - Manually copy Syslog messages log files. Under Setup, look for all Log to file - action and take note of the path and file name.
3. License - Deactivate the license from the old server using License Manager Tool first so that you can transfer the license to the new server. Please take note that Activation Key will be different once the license is deactivated. You can refer to the following video for more detail information:
