Do you have the Cognos server software installed on your local machine, or just Framework Manager?

In that case you just need to export the package via a content administration task on the remote server, copy the deployment archive file to your local machine, and import it using a content administration task.

Cheers!

Are you transferring just a package folder, or are you also including reports? If the latter, the options are allowing you to choose whether to include saved outputs for the reports, schedules for the reports etc. If you are just exporting a package, you don't need to select any of the other options.

Options are self explanatory . If you want to replace existing entry ,logging levels and security,schedules.. select as per your requirement.

I suggest first take a backup of the package(whatever) in your local system and replace with the contents which you have got from the export from the other environment this gives you an option for a rollback..   keep options default.

You simply need to add the data source connection to the TM1 cube. It looks like the connection is called TM1CA_Test1
