Project Area Migration from Server A to Server B
Hello everyone.
Would like to know if a project area Migration form Server A (RTC) to Server B (RTC) is possible? Is there something like an Export / Import tool? OS: Linux We mainly have RTC´s version 4.x and 5.x Regards. |
Accepted answer
As Kevin mentions there is no capability to do this today.
At one of my contracting jobs last year we created a couple utilities to help with the process. 1 to copy all the non-workitem stuff. timelines, categories, iterations, users, roles, source, plans. then we used export/import to copy workitems. all the numbers change another utility did all the workitem fixup. changed all the comments which had links & mentions, copied approvals, attachments. you cannot copy source across different RTC versions, so you have to use a man in the middle approach, setup a temp system the same as your copy from, copy the source to the temp, then upgrade the temp, and copy from temp to destination. keeping all the pointers to other source objects/users/projects is a challenge here. see https://jazz.net/library/article/535/ for copying source across servers Fabian Briseño selected this answer as the correct answer

This has been requested since '09 and in the backlog ever since. Try the search export AND project
There are ways to export/import work items and deliver source between repositories. The former has lots of limitations, the latter is in regular use in our shop. |

Dashboards and work items are no longer publicly available, so some links may be invalid. We now provide similar information through other means. Learn more here.
