You can copy Performance Management Architect applications from one application server to another. The copy process migrates Performance Management Architect metadata from the Source to the Target environment and makes it available in the Performance Management Architect Dimension Library.
You can create a Target application or replace a Target application. You can copy a deployed or undeployed application and, based on the Source application status, the Target copied application is created with the same status. After the copy process is complete, you register the application with Shared Services in the new environment.
The copy application utility, HFMCopyApplication.exe, is installed by default to the Server directory of your Financial Management installation.
To copy applications, you must have the Application Administrator security role.
The copy process depends on the following possible scenarios, based on the application copy method and the Source and Target environments.
Copy as Classic application. The Source application may or may not already exist at the Target destination. See Copy as Classic Application.
Copy as Performance Management Architect application. The Source application exists at the Target destination. See Copy as Performance Management Architect When Source Application Exists at Target.
