Transferring an Enterprise Reporter Database

The transfer task allows the transfer of configuration data (Cluster, Node, Discovery, and Report information) between two Enterprise Reporter SQL Server® databases of the same version. This is useful for new Enterprise Reporter installations when Cluster, Node, Discovery, and Report information has already been configured. The new database must be created using the Quest® Enterprise Reporter Database Wizard prior to the transfer. For more information, see the chapter named Using the Database Wizard to Create or Connect a Database in the Quest Enterprise Reporter Installation and Deployment Guide.
