Choose export options
Use the Export Options dialog box to specify the how the export will be carried out. See Concepts: exporting and importing for more information.
- Include Modified Parent Class Definitions
- Select to include the subclass definition's
class in the export. For example, if you are exporting a user-defined subclass
for Custom Object, selecting this option includes the definitions for the Custom
Object class, along with the subclass. Clear this option if the object store
you are going to import the XML file into already contains the class definitions
of the exported classes.
- Export File Manifest Prefix
- Enter a manifest file prefix, which will be added to the beginning of the manifest filename.
- Export File Location
- Click Browse
and navigate to the folder where you want to save the export file.
The export file contains the exported objects in XML format.
- Content Folder (user empty string to embed the content in export file)
- Use this field to specify a Windows folder in which
to save the content. Click Browse
and navigate to the folder. You can use a path relative to the export location or an absolute path. To embed the
content in the XML file, leave this field blank. The default value is a relative directory named "content."
NOTE In most situations, you should use a content folder to hold exported files, rather than embedding content in the export file. This will improve export performance and could help prevent an out-of-memory exception on your server.
- Log File
- The log file contains status and error information about the export process. The default file path is: <localdrive>:\ContentEngineExportLog<Current Date>.xml. To specify a different location or file name for the log file click Browse and navigate to the folder. By default, log information appends to previous information. To disable logging, leave this field blank.
- Export File Rollover Size
- Set a maximum size for each of the export files in the set. Rollover size refers only to size of the metadata included in the export manifest and does not include the size of content files (which is handled by the Content Folder option explained above.)
- Security Export
- Select Export Security Permissions to include the security permissions assigned
to the object. This includes:
- Object Owner
- Object ACL (including inherited ACEs)
- Default Instance ACL (only applies to Class Definitions)
For each security principal in the XML file the following information will
be included:
- SID - in the appropriate domain
- ShortName
- DisplayName
- Fully Qualified Name (which in the xml file shows up as Name)
