I'm planning to migrate my teamcity server onto a new physical location. The process is pretty straight forward, export the database, install a vanilla teamcity server and import the database via maintaindb.sh.
Since i have a large installation I decided to backup only server settings, projects and builds configurations, plugins. My point was that I can manually move build logs and artifacts later (i'd rather not try to restore from a 500GB zip file). However after importing the backup I was unable to see any build agents in the agent pool.
Any ideas? Do you have to install each build agent from scratch just because the server got migrated to a new location? Do you just have to point the agents to the new server and that's it (and if so why does the agent pool on the server seem empty)
Thanks,
