Hi, you can follow these infocenter instructions to make a backup of your whole database:

with Derby:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rqmhelp/v2r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.rational.test.qm.install.doc/topics/t_backup_derby.html

with DB2:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rqmhelp/v2r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.rational.test.qm.install.doc/topics/t_backup_commercial_db.html

Actually you could use repotools if prefered, but it is recommended you get a backup of your DB before use it. You can try making backups and restores in a test system while you learn how repotools works. Here is the repotools info:

Hi All,

I need to import existing Test scripts for move to another Project Area.

We have Test Plan & Test Cases feeds like that do we have any Test Script feed.

eg for test cases : https://127.25.45.1:9444/jazz/secure/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/Project/testcase

Our RQM server will be migrated from CDL to RTP, how to export the existed datum (test cases, test plan) in RQM server and import them to another server?

As long as both projects are on the same server this is really easy. In the UI of both the test scripts view and the test script form there is a "Duplicate" button. This will create a copy of the resource within the same project or to a different project.

To do this to a different server is harder. You'll need to use the API. I'd take a look at the RQM Copy Utility (https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RQMCopyUtility) or the RQM URL Utility (https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RQMURLUtility) to see if either suits your needs.
