Since I think I just figured it out I'm going to reply to my own question:

copy /var/lib/openvas/mgt/tasks.db to the new server (replacing the
tasks.db there.  Make sure the permissions match)
run: openvas -m on the new server to migrate the data.
Restart openvas-managed openvas-scanner and gsad on the new server.

The new server should have all the settings, scans, and results etc. a
the old one now.... including the admin password.
