This is a guide on how to migrate your Password Depot Enterprise Server 19 to another Windows Server/computer.
The computer you are migrating to must meet the following requirements:
The Server Manager must be installed and run as a Windows service.
The Log On account of the service PD_Service_19 (by default the Local System account) needs full read and write access to the program directory of the Server Manager.
Firewall rules allowing incoming and outgoing TCP/UDP connections over Port 25019 on both sides/computers.
Applies only when auto AD sync is enabled: The Log On account of the service PD_Service_19 (by default the Local System account) must be able to read the memberships of the previously imported users and groups. Previously imported groups may otherwise lose their members.
