Export Data Dialog

Use this dialog to specify the objects that you want to export. For example, you might want to export only changes to Data Load Parameters.

Element Description

Export File Name

Use this field to specify a name for the export (for example, June_1_setup_data). This name is displayed in the <Export List> on the Export Setup Data dialog, and is used as the default ZIP file name that is generated by Configuration Manager. Alternatively, you can also use the default export file name that is displayed.

The name that you specify in this field can be different to the ZIP file name that you specify when the export is complete. For example, you might specify 'ExportSetupData' in this field, but when the export is complete and you are prompted to specify a file name you might change the file name to ExportSetupData_2010-05-14.zip.*

Setup Objects to Export

Use these check boxes to specify the objects that you want to export. For example, Data Load Parameters only.

Export

Use this button to start the data export using the specified details to create a ZIP file.

When the File Download dialog is displayed, either click Open to open the ZIP file in your default ZIP file tool or click Save to save the ZIP file to a location that you specify.

Configuration Manager creates a default ZIP file name using the value that you specified in the Export File Name field appended with '.zip'.**

Note:

*Do not specify a ZIP file extension or a file location in this field. A ZIP file extension is appended automatically during the export. You are prompted for a file location later if you choose to save the ZIP that is generated.

Tip:

**If you Save the ZIP file, Oracle recommends that do not change the ZIP file name. If you change the ZIP file name, then the ZIP file name will be out of sync with the file name that is displayed in the Name field in the Export List on the Export Setup Data dialog.
