How to migrate Greenbone Vulnerability Management from 11 to 20.08

I’m using GVM 11 (GSA 9.0.1) and I need to migrate to latest version 20.
I’m using a docker image (https://github.com/Secure-Compliance-Solutions-LLC/GVM-Docker).

Is there a step-by-step guide to migrate targets, reports and - very important - overrides and notes?

Thanks,
tode

Hi, for migrating your docker instance you need to ask the provider/creator of the docker container. If you would have build it from source you could update the installation and run gvmd --migrate to update the db. But in this case you are relying on an external third party and we can’t help you.

Thank you bricks.
I’m in a deadlock :slightly_smiling_face:
I tried to upgrade my current docker image to the new image but I get the error “scan_run_status” when I try to access reports.
I reported it as a issue on github (https://github.com/Secure-Compliance-Solutions-LLC/GVM-Docker/issues/127) but I got no answers.

So I don’t want to retype all my hundreds of overrides… I’m looking for a doc to follow in order to recover at least my notes and my overrides. I mean export them from v11 (I see a XML export function) and import in v20.

Any hint?
Thanks again,
