Change the cube or datasource used by an exploration

Troubleshooting


Problem

User would like to use an Exploration report (created on Planning Analytics for MSExcel) from one PA instance into another.  The instance doesn't have the same name.  However the cube on the new instance is replica of the source cube/instance.
User is referencing this IBM documentation to try and achieve this:  Change the cube or data source used by an exploration.

Symptom

When the user attempts to change the data source (connection) or the package (model and\or cube), the Exploration rows, columns and context is blanked out and no amount of Refresh will repopulate the Exploration with the new definition.
