Join Forms will not import.  We imported Regular forms first and then receive 
Error 55 when importing the join forms.  So we are using migrator to push the 
join forms.

Is Export/Import not an option for you?

RRR had some tools at WWRUG13, but I don't know if they have been published yet

What rrr tools would you recommend for moving custom objects from ARS 8.1 to 
another ARS 8.1 server?

Hi,

It seems much easier to just install a 8.1 and export/import the def file 
followed by a migration of the data using the API.

RRR have tools to assist you in many of these steps, as you may need to fix 
some parts of your application to fully functional.

As for upgrading from HelpDesk to ITSM 8.1, I think you should start from 
scratch on that one...
