The Vault Upgrade Guide is a comprehensive look at upgrading your Vault environment to a new release year or edition of Autodesk Vault. Details are provided for releases from 2009 to the current Autodesk Vault release. What Is an Upgrade? An upgrade means moving Vault data to a newer release (e.g., from Vault 2016 to Vault 2019), to a higher product edition (e.g., from Vault Workgroup to Vault Professional), or both. When upgrading, upgrade to the highest release first and then upgrade the product edition. For example, if moving from Vault Workgroup 2016 to Vault Professional 2019, first upgrade the release to Vault Workgroup 2019 and then upgrade the edition to Vault Professional 2019. What Does Upgrading Entail?

At a minimum, the administrator should be familiar with installing and uninstalling software on Microsoft Windows ™. Where Can I Find Upgrade Assistance? If there are concerns or additional complexities in the Autodesk Vault environment, the best practice is to involve your Value Added Reseller or Autodesk Consulting.
