Hi.

Im doing an migrate from an Nagios XI 2012 R7 to Nagios XI 5.2.3 with export cfg files->import cfg files. But i cannot find any migrate solution for the user accounts. Can only export the contacts.cfg file. Think this is the accounts for login.

The user accounts are stored inside of the database. If you want to back those up, you're going to need to do a full backup and restore. If you decide to go that route, you're also going to need to start the old system at XI 2012 R7 and upgrade it to XI 5.2.3 after importing the configuration from the old server. Let me know if you need further clarification.
