First a little background.
We have 2 companies using the same RT instance, each with access to a
different set of queues.. This worked well for multiple years. Now for non
technical reasons (<GRIN>) we need to separate one of the companies out. So
they can import their queues into new Instance of RT.
What I figured would be the best way to do this (FSVO best), was to the dump
the existing RT DB, spin it up i a new VM, and then basically shred everything
that belongs to Company A, and give the resulting Database to Company B..
I;ve been playing with rt-shredder and Appear to be all set a removing all of
Company A's tickets. Is there an easy way to remove the queue's using
shredder? The object plugin doesn't seem to like queue, giving errors such as
# /usr/local/sbin/rt-shredder --plugin 'Objects=Queue,Sales'
Loaded object has different id at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/RT/Shredder.pm
line 366.
Also running into issues with shredding users from CompanyA
/usr/local/sbin/rt-shredder --plugin
'Users=name,%@companya.nett;status,enabled;replace_relations,nobody;limit,10000000'
or variations on the above all seem to end with
Couldn't wipeout object: Group already has member: Nobody
I am sure it is Order of Operations / race condition issue.
Has anybody every had to do this?
Or is there an easy way to export Users/Custom Fields/Queues from 1 Instance of
RT to import to another?
Pointers, Ideas, etc.. All appreciated.
Thanks,
-Patrick
