Transfer repositories from 4.1 to 5.1

[sumofdavid]

I'm sure it's here somewhere, but I can't seem to find a guide on how I can transfer my 4.1 Vault repositories on one box to a 5.1 Vault on a different box.

What's the best way to go about doing this?

Are you by any chance upgrading from Vault 4.1 to Vault 5.1? If so, you could move the database first and allow Vault 5.1.x to upgrade the database and use it as is.

If you had a Vault 5.1.x server and database with data in it already and you're just merging 2 servers, then you could use our Export/Import tool to merge them. That tool installs with a Vault GUI client. Look for a machine with a Vault 4.1.x client, and in the Vault folder in the Start menu, you will see the Export/Import tool.
