Any way to copy VI server configuration from one version of LabVIEW to another

Every time we upgrade to a new version of LabVIEW we have to manually configure the VI server info on the new version.

Is there some file where that info is stored that we can just copy over to the new LV?

We already copy the LabVIEW.ini file for other options that we like to keep, but the VI server stuff isn't there.

What particular VI Server settings are you looking to transfer? Some settings cannot be transferred due to security reasons.

Things like the VI Server Port will be 3363 if it is not found in the INI file.  Changing this value will cause it to be written to the INI and then you can copy that information over.  But generally you should have a different port for each version of LabVIEW so that tools like VIPM can talk to each version of LabVIEW individually.  I assume other VI Server options are set to default if they aren't in the INI.
