Re: Why New Install

They all looked good. I did migrate a few months ago, but it was working normal up till today. I can't think of what I might have done, but I'm sure it must have been something I did. I did recover it back, I do a back up every night so I did a recovery of that VM and it work fine after that.

If you complete the configuration wizard and save changes in SCFG, the "new_install" flag is cleared (set to false) automatically):

In a fresh/new install, it's set to "true":

$ grep -i new ../../../ctrl/main.ini
new_install=true

But just running "scfg" one time and saving changes, sets it to false.
