I have a few project areas of varying sizes running on RTC v602. I am now setting up a new v606 Jazz Team Server on new hardware and I want to start off with a project that is based upon a small project from the original server. I extracted the Process template from the existing server and imported it into the new JTS. Then I created my new project and set up some Team Areas and Timelines.
Now I want to take a copy of about 15 components and 5 streams from the existing project and load them into the new project on the new JTS v606.
Is there a recommended way of doing this, e.g. an article I should follow ?

Accepted answer
Take a look at distributed SCM. You could flow (deliver) the changes from the original server to the new one.
See the following links:

Comments David, this usually requires the servers to be 'compatible' which menas the same version for a huge bunch of them.
In general (unless a N&N or other doc states otherwise) distributed SCM follows the n-1 rule. So in this case flowing between a 6.0.2 and 6.0.6 server should work fine.
Thanks for useful reply. But I currently have problem when I try to create Rep workspace for the components I wish to transfer.

I don't know if this is relevant to my problem described above but when I tried to use Eclipse client v606 (as opposed to v602) I also got a handshake failure when I was trying to connect to the v602 server "jts_old".
Yeah, you will always need to make sure that the RTC client you are using is older than the oldest sever in this scenario. The n-1 compatibility rule means that the RTC client can be at an older version than the server, but not the other way around.
