nnmconfigexport.ovpl is a Perl script that enables you to export
the customized configuration to stdout, or to save it in a file.
nnmconfigexport.ovpl supports the following options:
-?
Displays the usage statement.
-u <username>
Supply the NNMi administrator username to run the script. This script requires
the NNMi administrator username unless you use an nnm.properties file.
See the nnm.properties.4 reference page for more information.
-p <password>
Supply the NNMi administrator password to run the script. This script requires
the NNMi administrator password unless you use an nnm.properties file.
See the nnm.properties.4 reference page for more information.
-c <configuration>[,configuration...]
Exports the XML schema for the specified configuration. Use a comma separated list for multiple configurations. If
there are multiple configurations, you must specify a directory when using the -f option.
Valid configurations:
account
Exports user accounts, user roles, user principals, user groups and user account mappings.
author
Exports authors. Can be optionally filtered using the -a argument.
customCorrelation
Exports custom correlation configuration. Can be optionally filtered using the -a argument.
comm
Exports communication configuration. Does not export SNMPv3 communication configuration and device credentials. The encryption algorithms used with this data rely on an internal key specific to the NNMi installation. It is not possible to import this data, so the data is excluded from the export.
custpoll
Exports custom poller configuration.
device
Exports device profiles. Can be optionally filtered using the -a argument.
disco
Exports discovery configuration (does not include seeds).
discoseed
Exports discovery seeds.
icons
Exports icons.
ifgroup
Exports interface groups.
iftype
Exports interface types (IfTypes). Can be optionally filtered using the -a argument.
incident
Exports incident configuration. Can be optionally filtered using the -a argument.
menu
Exports menus. Can be optionally filtered using the -a argument.
menuitem
Exports all menu items configured for the Actions menu. If you supply the
-a argument, the output contains the related parent menus and sub-menus.
mibexpr
Exports MIB expressions. Can be optionally filtered using the -a argument.
mibtypes
Exports MIB OID Types.
monitoring
Exports monitoring configuration.
nodegroup
Exports node groups.
ngmap
Exports node group maps. The node host names must match between both NNMi management servers for the node coordinates to import successfully.
oam
Exports Overlapping Address Mappings.
rams
Exports one or more route analytics management server configurations.
NOTE: The Query Password field of a RAMS configuration will only be valid when
you import it into the same NNMi installation on the same system. If you import the Query Password
field into a different system, you will have to re-enter the Query Password.
security
Exports security groups and tenants.
securitymappings
Exports security group mappings.
station
Exports NNM 6.x/7.x management stations.
status
Exports the node group status configuration.
trap
Exports the trap logging configuration. Can be optionally filtered using the -a argument.
ui
Exports user interface settings.
all
Exports all of the available configuration areas. If you use this option, you must direct the output to a directory.
-a <author_key>
Export only the configuration items created by author with key author_key in a special
XML format used for incremental import. The nnmconfigimport.ovpl script automatically detects
this XML format. You do not need to use a special option when using the nnmconfigimport.ovpl
script.
This option is only available for configurations
author,
customCorrelation,
device,
incident,
menu, and
menuitem.
You can find available author keys by doing an export of authors. See the examples shown below.
-f <output file or directory>
Saves the output to the specified file or directory.
-x <file_prefix>
A file name prefix that is used to name files when the specified output is a directory. Files will be
named <prefix>-<area>.xml.
nnmconfigexport.ovpl -u
myusername -p
myadminpassword -c comm
Exports the communication configuration to stdout.
nnmconfigexport.ovpl -u
myusername -p
myadminpassword -c comm,disco -f /tmp -x my
Exports the communication and discovery configurations to files named /tmp/my-comm.xml and /tmp/my-disco.xml.
nnmconfigexport.ovpl -u
myusername -p
myadminpassword -c author
Exports all authors with author key and label to stdout.
nnmconfigexport.ovpl -u
myusername -p
myadminpassword -c menuitem -a com.mycorp.nnm.author -f /tmp/mycorpmenuitems.xml
Exports the menuitem configuration created by author with key
com.mycorp.nnm.author
to the /tmp/mycorpmenuitems.xml file.
