How to copy organisation in CRM Deployment Manager?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 290

I have a fresh instalation of CRM2011 On-Premise with sample data. There is one organisation (crmdb1) in CRM Deployment Manager.

I would like to have TWO organisation (copy of crmdb1) for testing and preparing some data for some processes.

I know that there is needed to make a copy of SQL2008 database (crmdb1) and add organisation in Deployment Manager (create new or import?)

What should I do step by step?

 

Thx.

    After a few trials I've made it with success!

    I've done it as fallow:

    1. Select a database in SQL Server Management Studio which will be copied (crmdb1). Right click / Tasks / Backup.

    2. Right Click on Databases / Restore Database

    3. Put the name of new database (testdb) and select file from local disc a copy of crmdb1.bak.

    4. Open CRM Deployment Manager -> Import Organisation (Wizard)

    5. Select server_name and database (testdb) and OK.

    6. New organisation should be created. Right click on it and Enable.

    7. Go to Internet Explorer and put address: http://server_name:5555/testdb and you will see a new fresh copy CRM ;-)

    Voila !!!

    There is 2 organisations that might be used for exaple for testing. You can enable and disable each of it.
