Migrating SAS components from Windows to Windows

[vijayanand]

Hi,

My requirement is to migrate all the sas components from one windows environment to another windows environment. The OS version remains the same.  Can I copy the sas components as file copy and use it  in the target environment.

SAS Components I mean are

SAS datasets

SAS programs

SAS Metadata ( DASH boards,CUBE,IMAPS,Reports,Stored Processes)

Thanks.

Datasets and programs can just be copied. Metadata has to be exported and imported as a package.

Thanks for the response.

Current Windows Version is 2012R2

Target windows version is  2016.

I still feel that the file copy should work for SAS Programs and SAS datasets.     

Thoughts pls...
