4 Packaging

Most objects that are set up in Director can be packaged up into a configuration file, which can be imported into another EDQ server using the Director client application.

This allows you to share work between users on different networks, and provides a way to backup configuration to a file area.

The following objects may be packaged:

  • Whole projects

  • Individual processes

  • Reference Data sets (of all types)

  • Notes

  • Data Stores

  • Staged Data configurations

  • Data Interfaces

  • Export configurations

  • Job Configurations

  • Result Book configurations

  • External Task definitions

  • Web Services

  • Published Processors

Note:

As they are associated with specific server users, issues cannot be exported and imported, nor simply copied between servers using drag-and-drop.
