Hi ,

You can copy the xml from one server to another.

in report studio development enivironment follow the below steps

Go to tools > copy report to clipboard.

then from the other server go to tools > open report from clipboard.

Another option is you can export reports from the current server and then import it to another server using the export/import capability in cognos administration.

Hope this helps.

Regards

Fleschgordon,

Another option is to use a 3rd party product that is designed to support deploying content from one server to another.  MetaManager and Integrated Control Suite have these capabilities. 

There's a demonstration of MetaManager's deployment features here:
http://www.bspsoftware.com/Products/MetaManager/Deploy#Deploy

As well ICS integrated deployment directly into the IBM Cognos portal. You can see that demonstration here:

If you are interested feel free to contact me at Andrew.Weiss@Avnet.com

Thanks,
