I am moving a temperature storage project from one server to another. The temp data is simply stored wiht the historical flag turned on… Is there a way to move the last year or 180 days of data or something like that to the new server?

This shouldn’t be an issue. Most databases will have some sort of data migration tool that will assist you in moving everything over. You should look into the documentation for the specific database you are using.
