Complete this task if the dmgr is on a remote server, not sharing application binary files with a Portal install.

1. Copy the filesForDmgr.zip file to the remote deployment manager system.

2. Expand the filesForDmgr.zip file into the installation root directory of the deployment manager. For example
   /IBM/WebSphere/AppServer

3. If the deployment manager profile was not created in the default AppServer/profiles/Dmgr01 directory, run...
   cp AppServer/profiles/Dmgr01/config/.repository/metadata_wkplc.xml DMGR_PROFLE/config/.repository

   Failure to copy the migration plug-in files to the deployment manager can result in the following error when you try to upgrade the ConfigEngine tool:

   com.ibm.websphere.management.exception.InvalidConfigDataTypeException:
   ADMG0007E: The configuration data type CellCompRegistryCollection is not valid
