Select Source and Target Application Page

On this page, you select the source and target applications. On the target Essbase Server instance, a migrated application can be added as a new or replacement application. If the migrated application replaces (overwrites) a target application, the migrated objects replace the target objects that they duplicate.

Note:

You cannot migrate between aggregate storage and block storage applications.

In the “Source application on Essbase Server” and “Target application on Essbase Server” boxes, select, respectively, the source application (the name on the source Essbase Server instance) and the target application (the post-migration name on the target Essbase Server instance).

If you want to replace existing objects on the target application (for example, if you want the outline and database properties from the source application and database to replace the outline and database properties from the target application and database), select the “Replace existing objects on target” option. Target objects that are not replaced are unchanged.
