Question about moving SMC/SPA to new hardware
We are retiring the hardware that our current SMC & SPA is running on, and will be setting up a new server. I would prefer to NOT loose the existing performance data in the move. What process should I use? Can I just install the latest SMC/SPA and copy the data from the old server, and if so what needs to be copied?
Thanks!

Currently running SMC 7.3.0.6 and SPA 2.2.06. Since SPA has the backup feature (forgot about that...Thanks!), I am now thinking about updating our what we currently have to the the latest - SMC 7.3.3 and SPA 2.2.3 - including updating to the required SE 7.4 (required by SMC 7.3.3). Then I could just install everything on the new server, turn SPA off, take a backup on the old SPA, copy backup to new server and after turning SPA back on restoring the DB (hence the part about updating our existing environment so it will match the new one
).
Any holes in that??
