Can anyone please guide how to transport XI objects from dev to production .

have gone through diffrent blogs and we have to go with CMS based transport not using file.

we have installed PI 7.0 SR2 SP9

We have not installed DI at the time of PI installation so do we need to install that again.

can we do this installation on Dev XI system or do we need a new machine for that.

We dont have a central SLD.

Hi,

Before exporting make sure that the objects are activated.

Perform the following to import/export ID objects.

1. To export or import directory objects, call the configuration maintenance screen of the Integration Builder.

2. Call the context menu for an object in a collaboration profile in the Integration Builder navigation tree and choose Export….or choose Tools ® Export Configuration Objects…

3. Select the Transport Using File System mode and follow the wizard’s instructions. When selecting individual objects, you can use drag and drop to drag the objects from the navigation tree and drop them in the object selection field.

The Integration Builder saves a binary export file with the suffix tpz in the export directory of the directory server

Do not change the file name of the export file. If you do, the Integration Builder will not accept it as the appropriate file when you import.

4. To import the export file(s) to another Integration Directory, first copy or move it to the import directory of the target directory.

5. Call the configuration maintenance screen of the Integration Builder for the target directory. Choose Tools ® Import Configuration Objects...

6. Select the export file saved in the import directory by using the dialog box that appears.

If the import is successful, the export file is moved to the subdirectory /xi/directory_server/importedFiles. The objects are not activated when they are imported into the target directory. They are visible in the change list of the user who imported them.

7. Check the imported objects in the change list and adjust the configuration data to match your system landscape, if necessary.

8. Activate the change list that contains the imported objects.

regards

mahesh.
