Move DC from one workspace to other

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Is there a way to move a DC existing in one workspace to other? If so what are the steps involved?

Scenario: Initial setup in JDI was a simple DTR usage with a workspace and created DCs from NWDS and simple check-in/check-out (no activities/no builds).

Now I setup CMS/CBS and created a track and so a different workspace and would like move the projects from old workspace into the track's workspace.

Any links/articles/SAP notes on the same is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Hi Rajit,

There is a way where you can integrate all the activities under one workspace to another. You can use a command line tool for DTR or Administrator Plugin in NDS.

For activating Administrator Plugin read this link:

To integrate the activities you can refer to this link:

Did you build DC's under Local Development and then store them in DTR? I have never tried this scenario hence i am just curious to know.

Hi Siddarth,

As it turns out to be.. the DC was developed locally and now I'm able to share it to others as part of a workspace. But now the problem is it is not recognized by the workspace as a 'DC'! It is simply treated as a folder with resources which is actually not much helpful for other developers.

Any ideas on this?

Thanks,

Hi Rajit,

Please refer to the note 888969. This note tells how we can move a DC from one SC to another.

The local DC is created under a software component called MyComponent. Also you have been able to move the DC along with its structure in the DTR.

I feel this note mainly depends on the folder structure of DC's and that this folder structure is present inside a DTR workspace.

Please follow the note step by step and let us know were you able to solve the problem. This problem has been encountered quite a number of time earlier also.
