Github user pferrel commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/incubator-predictionio/pull/328 @chanlee514 said: If the absolute filepath is the same in the machines (since SHA-1 hash of filepath is used as engineVersion), there would be no changes in the above workflow. You can just copy the engine directory and deploy. If not, you can also provide engine-id, engine-version as CLI arguments. There's some additional ongoing work to make the process more robust and clearer, such as enabling engine-directory as CLI input, help messages, and adding tests to cover such scenarios. I don't think the PR will be merged before then.
