Errors During a Project Copy
The following sections describe the possible errors encountered during Project Copy process:

Post-Failure Steps
When a Project Copy fails, the target project’s dashboard indicates which copy operation failed but does not display scan statistics as it normally would after a successful copy. You can still explore the project’s Summary tab, Project Inventory tab, and Analysis Workbench to view what was copied.
To attempt the Project Copy again, navigate to the target project’s Summary tab and delete the project. The source project remains available, enabling you to remediate the copy issue and run the Project Copy again.
