Import and export properties options

The -import option imports properties from an XML file and updates the launcheradmin.bin file. The -export option creates an XML properties file by exporting all of the launcheradmin.bin file properties.

{launcheradmin.bat | launcheradmin.sh}
  [-import properties_file]
  [-export properties_file]
-import properties_file
Specifies an XML file that contains properties to be added to the launcheradmin.bin file. If the launcheradmin.bin file exists, the existing properties are updated and saved. If the launcheradmin.bin file does not exist, a new launcheradmin.bin file is created with the properties from the XML file.

If the Launcher service is running, it is updated with the information from the XML file. If the Launcher service is running and you attempt to set options that cannot be updated dynamically, the command line returns an error.

The following properties cannot be updated dynamically:
  • Automatic startup
  • Separate launcher processes
  • Listening ports
  • Port Range
  • Remove user
  • Advanced options
  • Firewall options
-export properties_file
Creates an XML properties file that is compliant with the LauncherAdmin.xsd schema file. You can create multiple customized properties files to use in different environments.
