As part of Holly's move to a VM we changed to a Debian squeeze install rather than a Ububtu 10.04 Server
This is a ruff log of all the install and setup tweaks

mkdir in instrumentation for sites
a2ensite {cacti | intranet}
/etc/init.d/apache2 reload


apt-get install subversion
apt-get install git
apt-get install libpcap0.8-dev
apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev

Address graphs:
copied macmon source (to be relased) to ~daniel/addr, then ran make

Install mosquitto:
add unstable repo to /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free

Create /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/local with:
APT::Default-Release "squeeze";
(so squeeze is always the default)

apt-get update
apt-get install mosquitto
apt-get install libmosquitto0-dev
apt-get install mosquitto-clients

edit mosquitto.conf, add/uncomment:
pid_file /var/run/mosquitto.pid

log_type warning
log_type notice
log_type information
log_timestamp true


build instrumentation stuff:
svn checkout http://nottinghack-instrumentation.googlecode.com/svn/ nottinghack-instrumentation-read-only
make

sftp'd cacti dir from holly
exported cacti db from holly and imported
recreate cacti mysql user
apt-get install rrdtool
TODO cacti cron job
rrd files didn't move nicely so found this http://www.tolaris.com/2010/09/06/rrdtool-this-rrd-was-created-on-other-architecture/
rrddump on holly and rrdrestore on hollyvm
restore use this:-
for i in *.xml; do rrdtool restore -f $i `basename $i .xml` ; done

LSI scsi from vmware causes issues with mpt
/etc/init.d/mpt-statusd stop
update-rc.d-insserv -f mpt-statusd remove

tar'd across /var/www

turns out debian only install vim.tiny by default, which doesn't like my arroyo keys
apt-get install vim

apt-get install ntp
update /etc/ntp.conf to disable debian servers
add uk pool servers
/etc/init.d/ntp restart
