I think that your problem is not coming from your replication configuration but
just because you are trying to install racktable on an existing database. The
installer will want to provision the database with its structure and basic data
and it would overwrite your existing data.
I think the easiest way would be to install in a new database and then import
(or remap in the configuration to point to the old database). Just if your
existing database is old and the racktable you install is newer with change to
the database layout .. you might run into some issue. The other way would be
to see how you could upgrade instead of reinstalling.
Good luck!

Subject: [racktables-users] Installing DR racktables server
I have setup mysql to replicate the racktables database to another server. I
am now trying to install racktables butI get to step 5 of 7 and the installer
says:
Your database is already holding 65 tables, so I will stop here and let you
check it yourself.
There is some important data there probably.
Is there a way around this? I suppose I could install to a new db and then
import all the tables but then I would need to set up the replication all over
again.
