Export resources such as mailboxes, virtual roots, and event rules in an existing system
to prepare to import them into another Global Mailbox
system. This is useful when you want to create a test environment, create resources, test, and move
to a production environment when you are satisfied with your data.
About this task
To export from Global Mailbox:
Procedure
-
Create a properties file with the selection criteria.
-
Run the exportUtility, specifying the file created in step 1 as the
exportSelectionFileName.
The following files are created:
- --exportFileName
- The export file that is generated and is used to import into the target system.
- --reportFileName
- The report file that is generated, listing the resources exported and any errors or warnings
during export.
-
Review the information in the export report and resolve any error conditions.
-
Repeat step 2 until the results in the report are as intended.
What to do next
Using the--exportFileName that is created from the source system as input,
import the resources into the target system. See Importing into Global Mailbox.
