I set up a new Sametime 12 Server to replace an existing Sametime 11.5 Server.
Can I move the chatlogging database from the old server to the new server or is there a better way to migrate the chatlogging data?
As far as I remember, we exported the 5 (?) Sametime related databases from MongoDB and imported them on a new MongoDB server. Normally you can simply continue to use the existing MongoDB server.

You cannot Move them from the old install into the New install, but
you can Export (using mongodump) and import (using Mongorestore)
see https://www.mongodb.com/docs/v5.0/tutorial/backup-and-restore-tools/
There are some things that you need to take into consideration before this happens.
1) the sametime server needs to be shutdown before you do the dump.
2)the dump and restore only works of if you are dumping and restoring the same directory type.
LDAP directory type to LDAP directory type
or
Domino directory Type to Domino Directory type
you cannot go from Domino directory type to LDAP directory type or vise versa
Please let me know if this was helpful.........
