Is there technique for copying entire dashboard to move to another server?

I have two servers with identical data models/data sources.  I have a Dashboard built on one of those two servers.  I'd like to "copy and paste" the same dashboard object(s) onto the second server.

Is there an easy technique for doing this?

I know that the Reports function offers a simple to use "Copy Report to Clipboard" and then "Open Report from Clipboard" technique to do this same kind of thing with Report objects.

Thank you.

Hi,

The best way to do this is via the deployment export / import feature.

Thank you for that hint MFGF.  I'm reading up on the subject now at...

Sometime it is enough just to get the right lingo and then I can be off on my own.
