Exporting a Configuration

The configuration export utility exports all of the FlexNet configuration settings at once. Configurations are exported to a JAR file that contains database, FlexNet Platform Server, Producer Portal, and application-specific settings in separate XML files. The configuration import utility uses the JAR file to restore all configuration settings. A user must be assigned a role with the View and Manage Configurations permission to export configurations to a file.

To export configuration settings through the FlexNet Operations Producer Portal

1. Click System > Configure.
2. Click Export to open the Export page.
3. Click Export.
4. In the File to download dialog, click Open, Save, or Cancel.

Specify the location and file name for the JAR file. By default, the configuration settings are saved to a file called flexnet_configurations.jar. It is recommended to save the file to a safe location.
