Merging and moving personal vaults

What if I need to move the existing vault from a one place to another?
Proceed as follows
1. Make sure that none of the backup plans uses the existing vault while moving files, or
temporarily disable (p. 176) schedules of the given plans.
2. Move the vault folder with all its archives to a new place manually by means of a third-party file
manager.
3. Create a new vault.
4. Edit the backup plans and tasks: redirect their destination to the new vault.
5. Delete the old vault.
How can I merge two vaults?
Suppose you have two vaults A and B in use. Both vaults are used by backup plans. You decide to
leave only vault B, moving all the archives from vault A there.
To do this, proceed as follows
1. Make sure that none of the backup plans uses vault A while merging, or temporarily disable (p.
176) schedules of the given plans.
2. Move the archives to vault B manually by means of a third-party file manager.
3. Edit the backup plans that use vault A: redirect their destination to vault B.
4. In the vaults tree, select vault B to check whether the archives are displayed. If not, click Refresh.
5. Delete vault A.
