Copying Vault Content to the Target System
1. Copy the contents of the central cache vault to the target system.
* 
This step must be done whether the source system employs file vaulting for long term file storage or not.
For example, if your source system uses the default directory <Windchill>/vaults/defaultuploadvault for the central cache vault, then copy that directory and its contents to the corresponding location in the target system.
2. If the source system is using file vaults, also perform the following step:
For each vault, copy the entire contents from the mount paths of each vault folder (or the Root folder, in the case of automatic folder creation) on the source system to the target system.
* 
The mount path for any vault folder (or Root folder) on the source system should be same on the target system.
