Transferring Projects and Jobs

You can copy complete projects or jobs from one repository to another, maintaining references to the originating project.

  1. In the Navigator, right-click the repository name or the project or job to transfer and select Transfer. Alternatively, select File > Transfer.
  2. Select the source and target repository connections from the Source session and Target session list, respectively.
    If the Transfer window is launched by selecting a repository, the corresponding repository connection is preselected as the source repository. If launched by selecting a project or job, the selected object, along with its children, appears selected for transfer.
    To add a new source or target repository connection, click the Open a New Session icon.
    Note: The information that appears in the Transfer Repository Objects window is refreshed each time a different source repository is selected. All connections opened from the Transfer Repository Objects window close automatically when the window is closed.
  3. Select one or more objects to transfer. To display or refresh target repository information, click Display or Refresh Target Access Information.
    Selecting or unselecting a top-level folder automatically selects or unselects all folders under it. Selecting a job automatically selects all its projects. Objects that are selected more than once, for example projects used in jobs, are transferred only once. When a project is used in one or more jobs, selecting or unselecting the project in one location automatically selects or unselects the project in all other locations.
    You can search for source repository objects by specifying a search criteria based on a project or job name, source modifications timestamp to find all objects modified after the specified date, and the client user who last modified the source objects. Click the Add Search Result to Transfer List or Remove Search Results From Transfer List icons to select or unselect highlighted objects.
    Click Transfer.
Note:

The transfer option copies project and job definitions. Related data, such as, parameter sets, execution properties, or database connection profiles are not transferred.
