Move the Vault File Store

The file store can be moved from its existing location to another location on the same machine.

To move a file store to a location on a remote machine, see Move the File Store to a Mapped Drive or Remote Share.

Note: Never directly move, delete, or edit a file in the file store. Use the Autodesk Data Management Server console to manage the file store.

If you want to move all the vaults to another computer, back up the vault on the existing server and restore the vault on the other server.

Note: The default path for the file store is C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\VaultServer\FileStore.
