Editing server options for a script

You can add any number of servers to a script. For example, you might have an existing script that moves objects from a development server to a quality assurance server. You can edit the script by removing the development server and adding a production server, along with reassigning all scripted objects' source and destinations based on the new servers. This ensures that all objects originally migrated to quality assurance are migrated to the production server.
