Exporting views in simplified mode

Edit online

By using the ExportView command you can export specific views without having to provide additional qualifying parameters.

Before you begin

Attention: These instructions assume that you are exporting data from a Tivoli® Integrated Portal environment and not a Dashboard Application Services Hub one. Therefore, the file paths and commands are documented in relation to a Tivoli Integrated Portal instance. For example, commands are documented using tipcli instead of consolecli. For Dashboard Application Services Hub environments, substitute the tipcli element of the command with consolecli.

Ensure that the Jazz® for Service Management application server is running.
