To copy a VMM template between two VMM servers
Go to the Library page and navigate to the VMM template node from which a virtual machine template or service template should be copied.
Select the template you want to copy and click Copy.
Navigate to the destination VMM cloud library share.

In the Copy Template dialog box, for each dependent resource of the template, select either copy to destination or map to existing.

Note
If files are copied to destination VMM cloud libraries, temporary storage is needed. By default, the temporary storage location is on the App Controller server under %programdata%\Microsoft\System Center\App Controller. It can be updated to a network share using the PowerShell cmdlet Set-SCACTemporaryStorage. The App Controller computer account must be added to the network share permission list.
