Exporting a configuration profile to a file

To create a backup of a specific outbound HTTP connection profile, use the procedure given here.

  1. Export the configuration to a file.

    • To export the global configuration, start the following portal configuration engine task:

      • AIX® and Linux™:

        ./ConfigEngine.sh read-outbound-http-connection-config 
                          -DConfigFileName=/tmp/the\_global\_configuration.xml
        
      • Windows™:

        ConfigEngine.bat  read-outbound-http-connection-config 
                          -DConfigFileName=/tmp/the\_global\_configuration.xml
        

      The output file /tmp/the_global_configuration.xml contains an XML export of the global configuration profile.

    • To run an application scoped profile, proceed as follows:

      1. Determine the name of the application scope. To get this name, follow the procedure under Listing all available configuration profiles.
      2. Start the following portal configuration engine task:

        • AIX and Linux:

          ./ConfigEngine.sh read-outbound-http-connection-config 
                            -DConfigFileName=/tmp/the\_scoped\_configuration.xml
                            -DApplicationScopeRef=THE\_APPLICATION\_SCOPE
          
        • Windows:

          ConfigEngine.bat  read-outbound-http-connection-config 
                            -DConfigFileName=/tmp/the\_scoped\_configuration.xml
                            -DApplicationScopeRef=THE\_APPLICATION\_SCOPE
          

        where THE_APPLICATION_SCOPE is the name of the application scope.

      The output file /tmp/the_scoped_configuration.xml contains an XML export of the application-scoped configuration profile.
