About this task

To specify copy resource parameters:

Procedure

  1. Open the Specify resource manipulation type page of the Action Wizard.
  2. Click Copy and then click Next.
    The Specify copy resource parameters page opens.
  3. Specify the resource that you want to copy.
    There are two options:
    • To specify the static source location of the object, click Path and then click the ellipsis (...) at the bottom right of the Source area. In the Open window, to specify the static source location of the object, click Path navigate to the object you want to copy, select it and click Finish.
    • To specify a conditional source location for the object click Formula and then click ellipsis (...). In the Formula editor, specify the formula to use to determine the location of the object and click OK.
  4. Specify where you want to save the resource.
    There are two options:
    • To specify the static source destination of the resource, click Path and then click the ellipsis (...) at the bottom right of the Source area. In the Save As window, navigate to the location where you want to save the resource and its file name and click Finish.

      In case the Root output directory is specified on the Server-Side File System page of the Preferences window, you can just type a path and a file name or only a file name in the Path field. The file will be exported to this root directory automatically. In QMF for WebSphere® you can specify only the path, lying in the root directory set by administrator. Otherwise, the export will be forbidden and an error will occur.

    • To specify a conditional source destination for the resource, click Formula and then click the ellipsis (...). In the Formula editor, specify the formula to use to determine where to save the resource and click OK.
  5. To cut and paste the resource from the source location to the destination location, select the Move check box.
  6. To create a new folder to contain the moved resource, select the Create folders check box.
    Note: The Create folders check box is selected and cannot be cleared in QMF Server and QMF for WebSphere.
  7. To delete the moved copy of the resource once the task has been completed, select the Delete after task completion check box.
  8. Select the Mark as attachment check box if you want to be able to attach this resource copy to the email automatically.
  9. Click Finish.
    The Action Wizard closes and control returns to the Task window.
