How to move reports one server to another server?..

Answer / venkat

Server 1: In Cognos connection, under content
configuration(I guess thats the correct name) select new
export. This brings up a new window asking you to select the
stuff u want to export. Select the packages/reports or the
whole content store and click finish. This will create a zip
file in the servers Deployment folder.

Server 2: Cut/Copy this zip file to Server 2's deployment
folder. Then in Cognos connection, select new import and
select the file that you have just copied and follow the
steps. You are done.
