If there is an upgrade path between the two versions, you can copy your alf_data directory and database to the new environment. At the next restart Alfresco will notice it has to upgrade. I hope you dont need to merge the content of the two. That would require another approach.

I know the procedure of coping alf_data directory but taking the backup of users and restoring to the new alfresco server has become a problem.. can you throw some light regarding this…

Maybe if you post details of that problem Alfrescians recognize it.
