Resetting passwords after moving an Enterprise Vault database

If you are using SQL Server for Enterprise Vault only, we do not recommend that you move either the Vault Directory database or the vault store databases.

Instructions in this section are for experienced SQL Server administrators who may need to know what impact moving the databases has on Enterprise Vault.

When you move the databases using the SQL Transfer Database method, the encrypted passwords are not moved. You must therefore set up your Enterprise Vault passwords to these databases again, and point the DSN at the new server.

Using the Administration Console, set the SQL login password for the following:

The Vault Directory database. You must use the Administration Console that is running on the same computer as the database.
Each vault store database. Right-click each vault store and then, on the context menu, click Properties. On the General tab, type a new password.
