An import archive resides on the target content server. During replication, content from an export archive (residing on a source server) is copied into the import archive. The import archive then copies the content to the target content server, thus completing the replication process.
After you set up a provider connection (see Setting Up an Outgoing Provider on the Source Server), you are ready to create an import archive. You create (or edit) an import archive on the Manage Site Replication page on the target server.
To set up an import archive, perform these steps:
Log in to the content server as an administrator.
In the Administration section, select Site Studio Administration.
The Site Studio Administration page is displayed (see Site Studio Administration). If you run Content Server in the Top Menus layout, you do not see this page. Instead, all administration options are then items in the Site Studio Administration menu.
Click Manage Site Replication.
The Manage Site Replication page is displayed (see Manage Site Replication Page).
Click Add Import Archive....
The Add Import Archive page is displayed (see Add Import Archive Page).
Or, if you are updating an existing import archive, select it in the list of archives and click Change Settings....
Enter a name for the archive in the Archive Name field. This name appears in the list of available archives on the Manage Site Replication page. The archive name should not contain any spaces or special characters.
Enter a description of the archive in the Archive Description field.
To retain content that contributors assign to each region on the target site, select the Retain switched region content on target server during import check box.
These are the areas where a contributor has switched the contributor data file or native document originally assigned to a region.
You would typically choose to retain switched region content if you are replicating from a development server (source) to a contribution server (target), because in that scenario you want to preserve the changes made by a contributor.
You would likely disable this option if you are replicating from a contribution server (source) to a consumption server (target), because in that scenario you want to overwrite anything that has changed on the consumption server.
To retain content that contributors edit in each region on the target site, select the Retain region content on target server during import check box.
This prevents any contributor data files and native documents from being copied from the source server to the target server, which would potentially overwrite files edited by contributors.

Click Add Archive.
Or, if you are updating an existing import archive, click Update.
The next step is to create an export archive (see Setting Up the Export Archive on the Source Server).
