- New customers can purchase Vault client licenses at the SourceGear Store.
- Customers with current Gold Support subscriptions can upgrade their Vault 3.0 or Vault 3.1
licenses at the Gold Support Upgrade site. - Customers with expired Gold Support subscriptions must first renew their Gold Support subscription,
and then upgrade their license numbers at the Gold Support Upgrade site. - Note, Vault 1.x and 2.x license numbers cannot directly be upgraded to a Vault 3.5 license.
Vault 1.x and 2.x licenses will need to be upgraded to a Vault 3.1 license. The resulting license
can then be upgraded to Vault 3.5.
- The Server upgrade to Vault 3.5 may take longer than previous Vault Server upgrades due to new
indexing added to the database. - Please ensure you have a verified backup of your database before upgrading, and upgrade at a time
when it is convenient to not have access to the server. On very large Vault installations, the upgrade
may take several hours. - Vault 3.5 is not backwards compatible with previous versions of Vault. In essence, Vault 3.5 clients
will only interact with Vault 3.5 servers and vice versa. Vault 2.0, 3.0, and 3.1 clients and servers
are not compatible with Vault 3.5 clients and servers.
