About the Artifact Listing

Note the following about the artifact listing:

  • Artifact—Artifact name

  • Description—Artifact description

  • Last Modified Time—If this parameter is supported, reflects the time that the artifact was imported. Some artifacts do not support the last modified time parameter.

  • Last Modified User—If this parameter is supported, reflects the user who last modified the artifact. Some artifacts do not support the last modified user parameter.

  • Editable on the File System—If yes, the artifact can be edited on the file system using a text editor. If no, the artifact can be edited only within the product.

  • Dependencies—Lists artifact dependencies. For example, Financial Management Events artifacts also require that Financial Management Calendars artifacts be migrated.

Note:

In order to export or import Financial Management Data artifacts in a distributed EPM installation, Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management System Lifecycle Management must have a shared file system path. The domain account that has access to this shared/disk folder should be used to start services. Configure hfmLcmServiceAppPool(IIS) with this domain account.

Application Snapshot Complete application backup (can be restored later) No No Yes None

Note:

Application Snapshot migration requires all users to be logged out of the application. The system logs out all users and shuts down the application if there are no active tasks present for the application. The Application Snapshot is exported at the end of the migration after processing other artifacts. When importing, the Application Snapshot cannot be selected with other artifacts; however, if the application does not already exist in the target, you must include the application definition artifact to create the application shell.
