Migrating CC to a new server
We're in the process of upgrading some older hardware, and as part of this I need to move our current CC installation to a new device. Is there any documentation on how to go about doing this?

- Indeed there is. We cover the process of backup, restore, and migration in the manual here:
http://codecollaborator.smartbear.com/docs/manual/6.0/index.html?server_backup.html
Our internal backup tool creates a representation of the database and file cache that can be moved between servers. To move between devices:
(1) Use the internal backup tool to generate a backup.
(2) Install a copy of Code Collaborator on the new device. Be sure to use the same version.
(3) Restore from that backup on the new device per the instructions linked above.
Note that, if you have a lot of file content, it will take quite a while to generate the backup. This is expected.
