Manually Copying a Model from a CSE to a CSE Without Preserving Common Ancestry

Follow these steps:

1. Issue the following download command on the source CSE to produce an update.trn file.

   download -u userid -m "model name" [-s "subset name"] -l [-d directory] -e ency
   

   userid

   Defines a userid that must have authorization to download models.

   model

   Defines the model name. Enclose the model name in double quotes when it contains embedded spaces, as in "model name".

   subset

   (Optional) Defines the subset name. Enclose the subset name in double quotes when it contains embedded spaces, as in "subset name".

   Default: the model.

   -l

   Executes a download with the upload option. Omitting this option creates a checkout.trn file, that only the toolset can use.

   directory

   Defines the destination directory of the transaction file. The default is the current directory.

   ency

   Defines the child encyclopedia ID used when extracting a model or subset for upload to another encyclopedia.

   Important! Verify that you included the –l option before issuing the command.

2. If the destination encyclopedia resides on a different system, move the transaction file, update.trn, to a directory that the CSE server install directory can access.
3. From the CSE server install directory, issue the following upload command to upload the transaction file to the destination encyclopedia:

   upload -u userid -d directory
   

   userid

   Defines a userid.

   directory

   Defines the directory that contains the transaction file.
