Hello,
I've created some custom plugin property book pages for our schema extensions. This is really simple with plugin studio.
But how do I backup the created plugins? And moreover how do I restore them to another iManager?
When I try to use export/import in plugin studio, export seems to work fine, but as I try to import the generated npm on another instance (yes the schema extensions are installed on that server too), the following failure message is diplayed:
The system encountered an unknown error. Please contact Novell Support. Details:

Any hint or even backup tutorial would be appreciated!
