Copying a dimension between servers

Post by jcblough »

I have a dimension I'm trying to move between servers. I have moved the subset folder, the dim file and the xdi file. I restart the service for the server receiving the dimension, but the changes (specifically a new alias) do not show up. What am I missing?

If it's an alias, did you move the attribute control cube and associated dimension as well?

To move the attributes you also need to copy element attributes control cube, stored in the files named
}ElementAttributes_dimname.cub and }ElementAttributes_dimname.dim.
