Copying fixes

Use this procedure to copy fixes between M3 BE environments. If there are corresponding source files, these are also copied.

Consider these rules and limitations for copying fixes:

  • The task Copy All To copies all available fixes regardless of the search criteria stated in Manage Fixes. You cannot copy individual fixes.

  • The task Copy All To is not available in Development environments. Consequently, you cannot use the Development environment as source environment when copying fixes.

  • If the Feature Pack level differs between the source and target environment, no MCEs will be copied.

  1. Right-click the source environment where the fix is applied.
  2. Select Fixes > Manage Fixes.
    Note:  You can also open the task by clicking Fixes > Manage Fixes on the dashboard.
  3. The Manage Fixes window is displayed.
  4. Click Copy All To.
  5. A window is displayed with information about how many MCEs and fixes will be copied. Click Yes to continue.
  6. Select the target environment and click Next.
  7. A list of files that exists in both source and target is displayed. All these files will be replaced by the files copied from the source environment.
  8. Click Next.
