You can export from server directly to an other server with export node
command.
You have to define a server-to-server connection. Give the target server a
paswoord (help upd server) and define the server on the source server (help
def server). And then you can say:
To export client node information and all client files for NODE1 directly to
SERVERB, issue the following command.
Command
export node node1 filedata=all toserver=serverb
(From help export node)
