How to copy data from View 5.3 to 6.2

We have View Connection server 5.3 and want to upgrade to 6.2.

1. Is it possible to export configuration data from 5.3 and import to 6.2? I try with vdmexport and vdmimport command but on 6.2 I don't see pools (now it is called Farms as I see).

2. If I going to upgrade, what about View agnet 5.3, does it work with Connection server 6.2 or I have to immediately upgrade view agent on every desktop?

Thanks on help

Sorry, I see there is tab Desktop Pools and vdmimport import pools successfully.

My only question is about agent, is there problem with agent 5.3 and connection server 6.2?

It is recommended you update your agents to the version of view you are running.  I am in the same process as you right now and I have view 6.1 running but with 5.3 agents, they still work though if thats what you are asking.  Agents should be the last thing you update in the view upgrade.
