Answer 1

Neo4J databases live in your filesystem, you can simply make a copy of the folder in which your Neo4J data is stored. If you are running standalone this folder will be configured in conf/neo4j-server.properties and the line will look something like this:

org.neo4j.server.database.location=data/graph.db

Copy the content of that folder to the graph database folder on your other machine. I'd recommend that your databases are not running when you do this.

Answer 2

I believe you're looking for the dump shell command which you can use to export a database into a single Cypher create statement, you'd "dump" the database and then import it on your new machine.

Information on using the command is outlined here: Neo4j docs
