DS-User F1 Help for GUI (Context-Sensitive) : Export DS-Client configuration to XML
 
Export DS-Client configuration to XML
Windows DS-Clients: The "Export to XML" feature is not supported for Local DS-VDR, Lotus Domino Server, or Permissions-Only backup sets.
Use this screen to export the DS-Client configuration, schedules, retention rules, and backup sets to an XML file named “config-update.xml”.
 
Options
DS-Client Configuration: exports all settings from the DS-Client Configuration screen tabs (Setup, Defaults, Notification, SNMP, Parameters, Connections, Roles).
Backup Schedules: Exports all (or selective) Backup Schedules from this DS-Client.
Retention Rules: Exports all (or selective) Retention Rules from this DS-Client.
Backup Sets: Exports all (or selective) backup sets from this DS-Client. [Note: Recovered ‘orphaned’ backup sets that have not been ‘migrated’ (or had their backup information for connection, backup items, and schedule re-specified) cannot be exported.]
Expand All / Collapse All
Expands or collapses the list in the Options window.
Meta Symbol
(Windows DS-Client only)
Check to use a Meta Symbol wherever necessary. This will allow the XML file to be used interchangeably in different localization environments.
For example: An XML configuration file made from an English installation of DS-Client will also work for a German DS-Client installation.
Current Meta Symbols:
%ComputerName% - the DS-Client computer name.
%MSNetProvider% - the string representing the Microsoft Network Provider that is different depending on the localization of the operating system.
Include Encryption Keys
(Configuration must be checked)
Check to include the DS-Client Encryption Key and Account Encryption Key in the XML file (they will be encrypted).
Save As
Click to save the selected items to an XML file.
To use this file, make sure it is named “config-update.xml”, and place it in the folder containing the DS-Client service.
