An export manifest lists the assets that you want to export
from the object store of a source or target environment. After you create
an export manifest, you can add assets to it and specify which referenced
objects to include with each asset by specifying its include options.
You can also refresh an export manifest to remove assets that were deleted
or update asset names that changed. Each export manifest can contain
assets from a single object store only. After you create an export
manifest, you can use it to create a deploy data set. For more information,
see Create deploy
dataset.
FileNet® Deployment
Manager include
options control individual assets or objects.
When you create
an export manifest, it remains empty until you add one or more assets
to it. For more information about adding assets, see
Add assets to an export manifest.
After you add assets to an export manifest, you can view them in the
export manifest viewer. The export manifest lists the information
of each asset in the following columns:
- Name: The display name of the asset.
- Category: The type of asset (ChoiceList, Document, Folder, or
other assets).
- Object Store: The object store to which the asset belongs.
- ID: The object ID (GUID) of the asset.
- Include Options: The include options of an asset are options that
you can specify to which associated objects of an asset to include
in the export manifest. When you place your cursor over an include
options field, a pop-up display lists the include options that you specified
for that asset. For more information about include options, see Specify the include options
of an asset.
You can update the appearance of the assets in an export
manifest as follows:
- Sort the data in a column: Click a column header to sort the data
in its column.
- Drag-and-drop a column to a new location: You can move any column
in the export manifest to a new location. Click the column header
of the column you want to move and, while you hold down the mouse button,
drag the column to a new location.
