Moving or Copy from One Project Server Online Instance or Tenant to Another

Hi
Has anyone tried to move or copy an instance or tenant of Project Server Online to another instance or tenant of Project Server Online?
We have been recommended FluentPro's FluentBooks for this. Has anyone had any experience with doing or using this?

Hello,
I have clients that have done this before and clients that are planning to do this (client currently in the implementation phase) using Fluent Pros tool. Fluent Pro's tools will save a lot of manual effort and the only other option currently to
date is to reconfigured the other online instance manually.
Fluent Pro's tool will easily copy over all of the Project Online instance config, if you have custom look at feel for PWA, custom pages, custom lists etc., these will need to be manually recreated on the target instance.
If you have anything specific you need to copy over, give the Fluent Pro guys a call to see if their tool will do it out of the box or see if they can customise the tool to meet your requirements...

Moving a Clip From One Project to Another

How do you move a clip from one project to another keeping the sound clip and title that was used on that clip?

As far as I can tell, you can COPY all, or some, of the video clips (and stills) with transitions and FX and PASTE into a different Project. But you can't copy titles or audio tracks.
However, you can make a QT movie of the segment you want and import it. If it's short use 8-biy uncompressed or ProRes 422.
Or you can DUPLICATE what you need, and and new clips to the duplicate.

Moving LCM Jobs from one LCM server to another

I have just built a new proof of concept LCM server (3.1 SP3 FP3.7). My aim is to migrate the content from our current production LCM server (3.1 SP2 FP2.5) to the POC LCM server. I have been able to migrate the subversion repository. I have been able to migrate custom access levels and users etc.
I want to migrate the actual LCM jobs stored within LCM itself from production LCM to POC LCM server. Should be able to do this with LCM itself or Import Wizard but neither work.
Import Wizard produces and error against each LCM Job as follows, "Failed to create a new CrystalEnterprise.LCMJob. reason: Item SI_NEWOBJECT was not found in the collection"
LCM itself does not show the LCM jobs when adding objects to a job. It will show the Sub Folders under the main LCM folder (which contain the specific jobs I'm looking to migrate) but not the jobs themselves. Selecting one of the sub LCM folders and clicking the "Add & Close" button results in this error;
Sorry, LCM application is unable to process your request.
The error from the server is: Failed to get dependencies of the job.com.crystaldecisions.sdk.exception.SDKServerException: CMS operation timed out after 9 minutes. cause:com.crystaldecisions.enterprise.ocaframework.idl.OCA.oca_abuse: IDL:img.seagatesoftware.com/OCA/oca_abuse:3.2 detail:CMS operation timed out after 9 minutes.

Moving the mailbox database copy from one exchange server to another exchange server 2010 DAG

Hello Team
is it possible to the move the passive copy of database and logs from one server to another exchange server in the same DAG with out removing and deleting the mailbox database copies in exchange 2010
normaly procedure is
Remove the mailbox database copies and manually delete the .edb files and logs from the physical location and re-add the mailbox database copy to the new server in the DAG.
is that any way to achieve to move the passive database copy to another exchange 2010 server in the same DAG ?

From your note, you appear to have a two-member DAG (with a server hosting your active database, and a second hosting the passive copy), and you want to move your passive database copy from the current passive server to another. Your note
about what "the normal procedure is" isn't 100% correct - there are many ways to handle this task, and all can be considered "normal". Why not just add the third server to the DAG and
add a database copy on that third server? Once it is fully seeded, you can remove the current passive copy. This way, you never lose your redundancy.
Yes i can add the third and fourth serve in DAG , but i cannot add the mailbox database copies to the 3rd and 4th mailbox server in DAG as am using RTM version of exchange 2010 which is allowing to have only 5 database inclding mailbox datbase copies
and also currently my lab setup is two member dag (with a server hosting your active database,
and a second hosting the passive copy) in the same site named SITE A
and recently i have created new SITE B and included the 3rd and 4th DAG members in the same DAG
i want the mailbox database copies from the mailbox server database in SITE A to
Mailbox server database in SITE B as passive copy
That is why i want to move the mailbox database without deleting / removing it manually
Hope you understand my situation!

Broken/missing images when copying from one project to another.

Greetings:
I've been building pages in RH project #1 by copying and
pasting text and images from a separate RH project #2. While
working in RH #1 all the images are there. When I publish, half of
them are not.
Doesn't RH automatically add copied and pasted files to the
project into which they are pasted?
If not, how do I get these images into the project so they
get published? It tried pasting them all into the FlashHelp folder,
where the other published files are, but this has had no effect.
More, I have to use this technique again and again (long
story ;-) so I really need to get this solved.
Thanks.
stevenjs

Just to get some clarification--you're saying that the
problem appears when you are generating your output from project
#2? Or just when you publish after generating from project #2?
My guess would be that you're copying the code for the image
but not the image itself. Try this:
1. Copy the entire folder of images from project #1 into the
project #2 directory.
2. Do your copying and pasting from project #1 into #2 like
you've been doing.
3. Generate from project #2 and see if the images show up in
the output.
I know you say you have reasons for copying and pasting, but
I just want to mention the possibility of importing topics instead,
which will copy everything over into project #2. But you've
probably already thought about that.

Moving Subtitles from one project to another

To make work on a project more efficient, we started a project on one computer with only the film track for subtitling, whilst authoring the DVD on an other computer, another project.
So, how do we move the subtitles created in one DVDSP project into another project?
I cannot see that the subtitle stream creates its own asset, which could be imported into the authoring project, and DVDSP refuses me to copy the subtitles to past them into the "real" project and I find no export options which seem to apply.
Humbly seeking help.

Sorry Per - there is no direct way of moving the subs from one project to another, or exporting them directly as an asset. The very best advice is to construct subtitles outside of DVDSP as a text file which you can then import, edit, alter exactly as you want. I suspect it's beyond that point for you now, though!
However, if you use the app 'Subtitler' then you can export an item description of your DVDSP track and extract the subtitles from it in STL format.
Another thing to do is to export the track from one project as an asset and import it into the new project, but then replace the video and audio elements with the correct pieces that you need to use. It's a lot more messy than simply having a text file for the subs, but could get you out of a hole.

If I move a picture from one project to another in aperture why doesn't the jpeg change folders if all my pictures are referenced?

I started importing all my pictures into Aperture and have been debating whether to use a managed or referenced library. I'm leaning toward referenced, but before import everything that way, I do a couple of "test drives".
In Aperture, I moved a photo from one project to another expecting that the jpeg in finder would move from the original folder to the new one, but it didn't. Anyone know why? Is there a way to make this happen? Is it bad that I want this to happen? Should I just use a managed library. I like having control of the actual files (thus wanting to go with a referenced library).
Any thoughts?
Mark

In Aperture, I moved a photo from one project to another expecting that the jpeg in finder would move from the original folder to the new one, but it didn't.
Mark, Aperture does not store the originals organized by project, but by the date of the Import Session. So moving an image to a different project will not change, were the original file is stored.
This has a big advantage for backing up the originals. If they never move or change, you do not have to backup the originals other than directly after importing, if your library is referenced. And even incremental backups of a managed library are quicker.
Is there a way to make this happen?
You can always use the command "File > Relocate" to move the original files anywhere you want.
Is it bad that I want this to happen? Should I just use a managed library. I like having control of the actual files (thus wanting to go with a referenced library).
If it is bad, will depend on why you want to have control of your originals. If you just want to know where they are, it is o.k., or if you don't have enough space on the drive with the library and need to split the library across several drives. But it would be bad to move, edit, or access the referenced originals in any way. Let Aperture do the handling, or you will be risking broken references.
Aperture has several buil-in ways to show you the original: The "M" key will switch the Browser to the original, "File > Export > Original" will give you an exact copy of the original, or you can relocate the file to another folder. I simply open the aperture Library in iPhoto, when I want to view my managed originals. iPhoto has a command "File > Reveal in Finder > Original" that will show you also the managed originals in the "Masters" folder inside the Aperture/iPhoto Library package.

Move images from one project to another

I have just upgraded from ap 1.5 to ap 2. In 1.5, when I moved an image from one project to another, the image was actually removed from the original project and placed in the new project. It has been my habit to upload all the images from a shoot into one project and then sort them into image specific projects; for example all blackbirds into a project labeled "blackbirds", all hawks into a project labeled hawks, etc. Once everything was sorted, the original project would be empty and I could delete it. This does not seem to be the case in ap 2. When I sort the images into their specific projects, they do disappear from the original project and thus I am unable to delete that project. Am I missing something?
Thanks

I had a bit of an unusual situation. I was in fact moving images from a FOLDER to a project in another folder. Turns out that there were albums in a project in the SOURCE FOLDER. I clicked on the folder, not the project, so although moving the images did indeed remove them from the source PROJECT, they remained in the various albums in that source project, still showing up in the SOURCE FOLDER, which is what I was working from, thus the confusion. I bet I won't make that mistake again.
Thanks for the help.

I have over 200 hours of HD video on 5 different TB Thunderbolt GRaid hard drives. I need to reorganize my projects, moving large files from one drive to another. Advice?

Do some testing to get your method working right with some less than important footage.
Copy/paste files where you want then.
Use the FCE Reconnect feature to tell FCE where the newly copied files reside.
Make sure the new location and files are working as expected with your Projects.
Delete the original files if no longer required.

Moving CMS database from one server to another

Using the following:
Crystal Enterprise 10, installed on W2K3 Server R2 (not making any changes to this server);
CMS database, installed on W2K Server, SQL Server 2000, SP3
New database server: W2K3 Server R2, SQL Server 2005, SP2
I found what I think are the steps to moving the database from one place to another in the CE10 Administrator's guide (pages 291-300, but I want to make sure there aren't any "gotchas" when moving the database location and/or upgrading the database version. I'm primarily a DBA, so I already know about the Schema security change going from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005.
In a nutshell, here's my plan:
1. Take fresh backup of the existing CMS database
2. Stop Crystal Management Server
3. Click "Specify CMS Data Source" on the toolbar.
4. ETC--following the steps in the admin guide
If anyone has done this and has run into any problems (what I'm expecting) or had it go smoothly (I would be surprised), please let me know what to expect.
Thanks!

All you really need to do is stop the crystal services.
Backup the CMS and Auditing database
Detach the CMS and Auditing database
Copy CMS and Auditing databases to new DB server
Attach the CMS and Auditing databases
Set the compatibility mode
On the servers/s that host the CMS service, modify the ODBC connections to point to the new database server
Start the CMS service, fire up the Crystal services.
One thing to note, I don't think SQL 2005 is a supported platform for CE10 - this doesn't mean it won't work and since the support lifecycle for the product is long gone it doesn't really make much difference however you may want to run some thorough testing prior to the move.

Copying a single file from one project to another????

Hello,
New to Mac from a PC, tried search with no results. I have a single image I would like to display in 2 separate projects in Aperture. (As I will be writing to a disc and print later). How do I copy the image from Project A to Project B, making is available to both??? Thanks in advance!

There are two different ways to do this.
The first way is literally exactly what you are asking for but may not be what you really want. You can copy the image (and corresponding master) by holding down the option key while dragging the image from one project to the other - make sure the drop target is the actual little yellow project box and not something inside the project box. When you do this there will be two completely separate copies that have nothing to do with each other. If you make an adjustment to one the other will not change, if you delete one master the other will still be there.
The second way may be what you actually want - if you create any type of album within or even outside of a project you can drag any images from any project into it - no copies are made but the image will "show up" in that album no matter what project it happens to live in. This is usually a better way to group images together from multiple projects no matter what the purpose.
Here are some more details:

OSB : How can we copy actions from one project folder to other projects?

How can we copy actions from one project folder to other projects in OSB?
For eg:
I have a service call out action in Project1/proxySer1
I want to copy this to Project2/proxySer2.
Espicially, in our case error handling callout is common to all of our projects and we should be able to copy from one to another.
Edited by: user10367892 on Aug 20, 2009 12:28 PM

Thank you for the reply.
It was my fault. I was on two different servers, while i was doing this and so didn't work. But copy /past action works as you suggested.
Can I select multiple actions from one stage and paste to different proxy service? I have too many options to copy/paste and hence I have this question.
Is there any other way of copying all selected actions in one stage to another, but not the complete stage itselft?

Can I copy clips from one project to another? The clips are still frames captured within a video event.

Can I copy clips from one project to another? The clips are frames saved as stills from a video event. I try the copy & paste but it does not seem to work.

The video was converted into MP4 and then I could get it into iMovie events. I had right clicked and saved farmes as stills. ABout 50 of them, When I tried to copy and paste those stills into another project I couldn't. They came up blank.
I ended up going to a Genius appointment at my APPLE store this afternoon and was told that those "stills" aren't really anything. Not a .jpg or video, so the program doesn't recognize them. So instead I'm using the Project with the 50 stills and copying other .jpgs and video into it. (This is for a 1961 Class Reunion, so it's old stuff). Seems to work so far.
So bottom line seems to be I can use these stills created from a video in the project in which they were created, but no where else. Do you know a way around this?

Copy tracks from one project to another

(Hopefully, I'm just missing something obvious. Programs like Final Cut Pro and PhotoShop make it very easy to have multiple projects open and copy and paste between them.)
I frequently copy tracks I like from one project to another. Although it's possible to do, it seems a given that Logic doesn't not like to have more than one project open at a time. This complicates it a bit, but I just copy the track I want, close the current project and open the new one.
I wish in the edit menu or in the track drop-down menu there was a straight forward "Copy Track" option. Since there isn't, I just select the whole track (which is essentially all the regions) and copy and then paste into new project. The problem is that it brings the content over fine, but not the track info (name, etc.)
Is there some better way to accomplish this? I don't want to export MIDI tracks as audio, so the Export option doesn't work.
Thanks,
Dave

I looked at the video again and unless they did some editing in FCP (which would have to be the case), the following frame after selecting the regions shows both gone simultaneously.
It is quite possible of some FCP editing but as I said first you can do that very fast using two neighbor keys so it can look as one magic shot. The screen capture tools use low FPS settings for media capturing about 15 fps for example.
I tend to occasionally put a blank track between other tracks as a separator (been doing this since the Master Tracks Pro days).
I think you can try a little trick for doing that. You can create a "Dummy" empty region inside a folder track for example, and use the folder track(s) as separator(s). I have not tried that yet, cause I'm away of my Logic but it must work this way.

I am having problems copying and pasting clips from one project timeline to another. When I do this they often alter in length. Sometimes by two frames. Other times they lose a chunk off the end of the last clip in the sequence. Has anyone else found

You need to give a lot more information about the media specifications and the project properties you're using in the different projects.
