sw migration

Hello experts,

I have 2 ignite servers with sw depot in different networks. Can you please advise, how to transfer certain software (Integrity Virtual Machines) from one to second?

Both ignites can connect each other.

Thank you

Use swcopy for that.

Shalom,

swcopy -i has an interface that lets you swcopy any mounted depot to disk, even unlocked protected software.

It is very useful for setting up installation points of software delivered by depot.

Thanks,

I have tried it, but it's failing with many errors. Is it possible somehow to pack whole depot?

"... it's failing with many errors ..."

This isn't helpful at all. Exact messages?

Sorry for poor information. The logfile in swcopy window shows only following lines:

I'm sure some lines above are more related messages and reasons for the errors.

BTW, way not using version 4.1 instead?

Hi,

I have no access to DVD and this is only version located in depot, which I cannot access :(
