Creating the Import and Export Archives

When you replicate your site from one content server to another, the Site Studio replication feature exports the contents of your site into an export archive. The export archive content is copied into an import archive, residing on the target server. The import archive is then extracted to that server so that your site can be viewed and used again on the new server.

You create the export archive on the source server and an import archive on the target server. You must create the import archive on the target server first, however, so that you can point the export archive to that location when you set one up.
