Hi Purushotham, 

Yes, there are multiple ways you can do this. You can integrate the two instances but it isn't an ideal solution as you want to load the data just once. What might help you is - the data loading option in ServiceNow to load the problem data. Export your problem records from X instance and load them using the load data option so you can transform/map the fields while loading this data.

Moving XMLs might lead to discrepancies like reference field sys ids, if they are different the problem records will have broken references. If they are consistent, then feel free to use the XML export/Import option and yes you can import more than 1000 records using XML import/export

Hope the answer has helped you, please mark the answer correct/helpful. Thank you.

Whether the other instance is an empty table?
Direct export and pouring may cause duplicate numbers of two instances

1.Right click in the navigation bar of the list of problems

2.Export - XML

3.Right click in the navigation bar of the list of problems On another instance

4. Import XML
