How to migrate individual projects to a new Vault server

Post by jrogovsky » Sat Oct 19, 2013 1:53 am

I'm currently running a Vault Standard Server at version 6.1.

I'd like to setup a new server for Vault 7.0.

I see the procedure for upgrading the entire server (and I've done it before when upgrading from Vault 5.x) but I need to keep some of the projects in the older version of Vault due to minimum system requirements issues (I have several virtual machines dedicated to development with older versions of Visual Studio/.Net).

Ideally, I'd like to move my repositories over one at a time and I want to keep my version history.

Is there a procedure or a tool for this?

Thanks for your time.

You could use our Vault Folder Export/Import Tool that automatically installs with the Vault client. Just look under your programs list from your start menu.

Using the older client, you would start up the tool, connect to the server, then export out to a .vfe file. Then move the .vfe file to a new client, or to a server with the client installed, and use the tool there to import into the new Vault server.
