Migrating DSS

If you have multiple instances of DSS and you want to move your data and configurations from one instance to another (such as moving from development to test or production), you can create a Carbon Application project (C-App) and deploy the C-App in the new environment as described in Creating and Deploying a C-App. This approach works when the new instance you are migrating to uses the same DSS release and has the same database versions as the previous instance. Alternatively, you can copy all the data services configuration (.dbs) files from the deployment directory (<PRODUCT_HOME>/repository/deployment/server/dataservices) of the old environment to the new one.
