how can we move the metadata also?

Take a look at iwmigrate CLT. Alternatively (if it's a WF, File List and the like) you can use OD, see section "Deploying TeamSite
Extended Attributes with TeamSite Files" in the Manual. Finally, you may look at the (fairly old) *Recreate Branch* zip here to get some ideas
of how you can manipulate EAs yourself

if you are planning to move only a branch content (and not the complete store) then

you may manually copy the dcrs to the target location and then a apply the corresponding attributes.

Getattributes.ipl and setattributes.ipl will serve this purpose.

Are these getattributes.ipl & setattributes.ipl custom scripts. I dont see them either on our servers.

Those are fairly old (circa 2001) scripts that will transfer EAs from one branch to another. They were on the support site a number of years ago, but I do not know if they still are.

Now I get it, looks like they are still present on the support site. Thanks Andy once again.

Use at your own risk, they are kind of buggy. I remember they did not handle spaces well (I think it had problems with spaces in EAs), but it is a good assumption that spaces in the filepath will also break it. This is an easy fix.

Sure Andy, for now I am not using these scripts.
Was just curious where these files are on the server from the previous replies in the post. Last week I ended up asking about Image Size module location and you helped me with that, thought I must be looking at a wrong location this time too.

Thanks,

Recently after downlading the scripts (getattributes.ipl & setattributes.ipl ) from the support site, I used it to migrate metadata's and it worked great. So yes you should be able to migrate the metatdata's

OD 6.2 supports the deployment of EAs along with the content. Do a search on applyExtAttrs in the OD cfg guide.

NehaBabel_21

can you anyone pelase share the getattribute.ipl and setattribute.ipl file.I could not find these on support site.

We are moving the branch content from one Teamsite box to Another Teamsite box.so for EAs transfer we are looking for these two files.

You can use OpenDeploy to do that or use iwmigrate which will take the history as well. Otherwise, try to write the script (perl or Java)
