How to transfer the data (projects, resources, calendars etc.) of an
old installation of PWA for another new installation? The machines
are already working, it only needs me to transfer the data. I want to
disable the old installation. I sought anything in the forum before
publishing a new postage, but nothing found.

Besides, I already tried to do a backup of the old machine and to
recuperate in a new one, but several errors occur. :(

Thank you, it helped me too.

I used the following commands:

"stsadm -o export http://project/sites/sepg -filename sepg.dat" to
accomplish backup of my site and to recuperate it in the other server
of Project Server 2007.

"stsadm -o projerpbackup -url http://project/pwa" to accomplish backup
of the resources and of the calendars of the enterprise. But, he
appears an error, informing that the user is unknown or the password
is incorrect. Only that the user administrativ of PWA already exists
and I always use it. I didn't find any solution in the support of the
technet .

Does anybody can me to help?

I also verified another thing. When accomplishing backup of the pool
of resources, he doesn't create a backup file as in the previous
example. For the what do I understand he saves in a database of PWA
2007, call "ProjectServer_Archive" (am I wrong?). But how to
recuperate this information starting from a new server? That is really
possible? I tried to use "stsadm -o projerprestore -url http://project/pwa"
starting from the new server (his pwa would stay in
project.simplestec.com.br/pwa), but it was not possible.

I am thinking perhaps is not possible using the stsadm.

To migrate the data of the table MSP_RESOURCES perhaps is not a good
idea. :(
