Archiving the Application
5. Create a zip file of the composer project to use later when installing the archived application.
In File Explorer, find your workspace, right-click the project, select 7-Zip > Add to archive
to create a zip file of each project.
Testing the Archived Application, page 116 details the steps required to install the archived
application.
6. Copy the zip file to a location that can be accessible for later use in other systems.
For example, you can:
• Email it to yourself.
• Paste it to a folder in an FTP site.
• Paste it to a folder in ftp://ftp2.emc.com/, which is available in all demo systems.
You are now done with archiving your TaskSpace application.
Testing the Archived Application
We recommend that you use a VM (Virtual Machine) to test the archived application. With a virtual
machine, you can roll back the system to the initial state in case of failure.
To install the archived TaskSpace applications, you can use the DAR file generated while archiving
the application or import the zipped project into Composer. This procedure describes importing the
zipped project into Composer.
To install the archived application:
1. Import the zipped project into composer:
a. Retrieve the Composer project zip file and put it into a temporary location on the target system.
b. In Composer, select File > Import > Documentum > Existing Projects Into Workspace
and click Next.
