LCM - copy (promote) jobs from DEV to TEST

[Former Member]

Hi all!

I am searching for a way to copy the LCM jobs (to promote objects from DEV to TEST) from the DEV environment to the TEST environment.

Is there a way to do so? Or do I need to recreate the jobs on the TEST new, when I want to transfer the same objects from TEST to PROD?

Thanks,

Hakan

If in Xi3.1 then yes as you will not be able to change the source system.

In 4.0 you can use the "Copy an existing Job" option and log-off the source/destination sysem and relogin to appropriate.

You can create 2 seperate folders for easier management

And do you know, how an existing job can be refreshed?

I can create a job where a report is promoted from DEV to TEST. When the report now changes, so that a universe used is changed, the job itself is not updated.

The only way I found is to recreate the job again. If I can solve the refresh problem of a job, I could copy the jobs from DEV to TEST and exchange the logins from DEV -> TEST and from TEST -> PROD.

Edit the job, refresh it and save. It should update.

Hi!

Refresh did not solve the problem. I had to remove the objects, and then reselect. And then select the depending objects again.

Is there a new version of LCM? - Expect that of BO 4?
