How do I split an eB system?

Due to a company divestiture and reorganization I have an eB system that we need to split. What is the best way to do this?

  • An option may be to make two copies of the whole dB and prune them extensively.

    Bentley document "Creating an eB Test Environment" - SAN03027 describes the process

    If there is the SLIGHTEST possibility of the two business units being recombined at some stage, using roles/scopes within a single installation as Gintautas mentions may save you heartache in the future. I have been through the pain of splitting an HR system when a company was reorganized into 2 units, which were then re-merged a few years later. the data tidyup exercise was horrendous!!
