Where self hosted Tactical RMM keeps agents in database on Linux servers. Exact folders are covered below.
Last updated
Tactical RMM is fleet management with server storage. The database holds agents, checks, and scripts. MeshCentral handles remote sessions beside it.
Same database means same fleet. Exact paths vary by Docker installs. Keep backups on schedule. One missing table restores agents without history. For moves, stop services first to avoid partial writes during copies. This covers Tactical RMM software, not any similarly named game. Check the in app storage readout when sizes look wrong on different releases.
Where Tactical RMM stores this, by platform
/var/lib/tactical (database, paths vary by install)
Agents live in the server database with check history. Back up the database stopped. Match releases before restore. Mesh data sits beside core.
Frequently asked questions
How do I migrate Tactical RMM to a new server?
Back up the Tactical database plus mesh central data with services stopped, then install the same release on the new server before restore. Agents follow the database. Mixed releases can refuse old schemas, so match versions first.
Does Tactical back up agent history?
Yes, in the server database per agent with check history attached. The host holds a working copy plus script cache. Views rebuild after restore. Export reports from dashboards for records, since the data directory alone is working state.
