If the server you are porting to is not connected to the existing server, you must redefine some information on the new server.
To redefine server information:
To create users and specify their permissions, use Administration Services on the new server.
See Granting Permissions to Users and Groups in Essbase Native Security Mode.
To create the applications and databases that you want to port, use Administration Services on the new server.
Copy the outline files (.otl) for the databases that you want to port from the old server to the same directory location on the new server. Ensure that the application is not running while you copy these files.
Copy compatible files from the old server to the new server.
