Hi,

Follow the steps as given below:

a) If the DC you want to copy is part of NWDI, copy it to local DC by EXPORTING

b) Create new DC using using option : Import content from existing local project and select local project

This way will help u to create copy.

I have created new DC and copied the complete project by components, models and later reconfigured the context since i have to move the complete project to new package.

Thanks for the effort.

Hi,

Create the DC in the Track with same name.

to do this, you need to remove the DC name reservation in the SLD,

After that, copy src of old project and paste in the new project,

before copying the src, you have to add the depedencies in your new dc as per the old dc, becuase the copying won't take the dependent dc reference,

after adding the dependent dc's you can copy the src to new dc,

when you paste the src under new dc's that should promt you for add some files to acitvity, other wise delete the src and paste it again until u get the popup to add files to activity,

after pasting - repair the dc project strucutre, roload and rebuild after that check manually all the depenceies are working, now you can build the dc and deployee,

this process work for only for the same naming dc's,

i have done this, this will work fine,

Cheers,
