After the vault is detached, you can move the two corresponding files. The
.mdf and .ldf files must be kept together. Attaching a vault reconnects the set
of vault files that were moved to the database engine.
NOTE After reattaching the database, the Autodesk Vault server user accounts
must be edited to have access to the reattached vault. To avoid editing the user
accounts, back up the database and restore it to a new location.
