The Copy Wizard copies connections used by sessions in the folder or deployment group. If the connection exists in the target repository, the Copy Wizard uses the existing connection. The wizard does not overwrite connections in the target repository.
When you copy a folder or deployment group, the wizard displays the following information about connections:
No Match Found.
No match exists in the target repository. The wizard copies the object. You have access to the object in the source repository.
Match Found.
A matching object with the same name exists in the target repository. You have access to the objects in both the originating and target repositories.
Match Found - Permission Denied, will copy and rename to [new_name].
A matching object with the same name exists in the target repository. You have access to the object in the originating repository, but no access to the object in the target repository. The wizard copies the object and renames it by appending a number to the name.
Permissions Denied.
You have no access to the object in the source repository. All sessions using this connection are invalidated.
