Snapshot option

The Snapshot option in the Management Console provides a means for saving a "snapshot" of Launcher information to a file in XML format. A "snapshot" of Launcher information refers to capturing a moment in time of status, historical, and configuration information that the Management Console provides about a CompoundSystem (see "Multiple Processes" for additional information when using the multiple-processes feature) running under a Launcher.

To create a snapshot file

Note: This option is not available when the CompoundSystem is stopped.
  1. From the Management Console, select System > Snapshot.

    The Save As window opens.

  2. Specify the name of the XML file to which the Launcher CompoundSystem information will be stored and click Save.

    The file is saved in XML format.

    You can accomplish the same task on the command line. For information about using the Snapshot command line options, see Snapshot commands.
