Export users to another instance and maintain same sys id

Hi,

I want to export all user accounts to a new instance and I should maintain the same sys_id as the original instance.

What could be the best way to achieve it?

I tried Import Users from list view with Insert data option. It says I cannot insert with sys_id column. If I take of sys_id, system will create with it's own sysid. I'm trying to use on import sets & Transform maps, but not getting enough clarity on how to proceed further.

Appreciate your help.

 

Thanks,

Krishna

You'll want to export using XML. Then import the XML file into your other instance and the sysID will be maintained.

what happens with SYSID conflicts? would it just reject the conflicting sysID's or create new sysids and still import?

sys_id's are unique to their generating instance, so when imported into another they cant have a conflicting id.
