Repeating an Export Operation

You can repeat a previous export operation to generate a new snapshot. Repeating an export operation reuses the settings you used previously for the export operation.

To repeat an export operation:

  1. Access Migration. See Accessing Migration for Lifecycle Management.
  2. Click Snapshots.
  3. Select a snapshot that you previously exported from the service.
    The settings that were used for exporting the snapshot are used for the export operation.
  4. Click Actions button (Actions), and then select Repeat Export.
  5. In Repeat Export, rename the export folder, and then click OK.
    The Migration Status Report, which indicates the progress of the operation, is displayed.
  6. Click Refresh to update the Migration Status Report to monitor progress. Click Close to close it.

    If the export fails for any reason, the report displays Failed as the status. Click Failed to open the Migration Details screen, which indicates why the export failed and the corrective action. You can attempt the export operation again after correcting the error that caused the export to fail.

    The folder containing exported artifacts is listed in Snapshots.
