:
Configure the mxexport batch file for larger CMS installs

for example
C:
\
program files
\
HP
\
Systems
Insight Manager
\
bin
, edit
mxexport.bat
with any text editor
change
the line that starts with
java and add
–

.
For example the line should look like the following.
java
–
Xmx
1024
m
-
Dora.home=%ORA_HOME%

cp %MYPT%
com.hp.mx.migration.cli.CLIWrapper mxexport %*
Step
9
:
Run
ning
the export utility on the source CMS
The export utility is
a
command line interface (CLI) c
ommand that must be run from a standard
command prompt
on a
Windows
operating system
. The export utility must be executed by a user that
has OS
-
level Administrative privileges, and
should
be the same user that installed the Insight
S
oftware
on the source C
MS
The export command
-
line (CLI) command and syntax is
:
mxexport [
–
f
<filename>] [
-
p pass]
Where the parameters a
re listed in the following:
-
f
—
O
ptional
.
C
an be used to specify a different filename or path for the export archive. The default
file name is
Products.zip and is placed in the
<SIM Install Path>
\
data
\
configdata
-
export
directory
-
p
—
O
ptional
.
Enables
the password to be passed in on the command line for non
-
interactive
operations such as a script.
This is the password that will be used to encrypt
the exported file
,
Products.zip
.
If
–
p is not specified
,
the user
is
prompted to enter the password
in a secure
fashion
.
HP recommends not specifying the password on the command line
.
The
p
assword
must
be
at
least
8 characters long
,
but should not be your
domain password
.
For example:
m
xexport
–
f c:
\
export
.zip
–
p
somepassword
In this example, the compressed file
is
saved to the root directory of the
C
: drive and is called
export.zip
. Since the password of “
somepassword
” was provided, future prompts for th
e
password will not be seen
.
