Export Content Packs

Administration > Setup and Maintenance > Content Packs

Alternatively, click Content Packs.

Using the Content Packs Manager, you can export configuration data to a file. The content pack contains references to the configuration data and the referenced data.

The configuration data in a content pack makes references to configuration items stored in the Run-time Service Model (RTSM) used by the system from which the content pack was exported. If these configuration items are not present in the RTSM used by the system into which you want to import the content pack, the configuration data in the content pack cannot work.

You can export a Content Pack definition and included content. There are two modes:

• Normal Mode

  Content of exported content packs is labeled as custom.

• Content Pack Development Mode

  When a content pack is exported, you can define its content as predefined or custom, and is independent of whether the content pack definition used as base for the export is predefined or custom.

  Content Pack Development mode is enabled under the Operations Management - Content Manager Infrastructure Settings.

  Caution It is not recommended to create new versions of predefined Content Packs that you are not responsible for - as this may result in upgrade errors in the future.

1. In the Content Pack Definitions pane, select the content pack that you want to export.

2. To export the selected content pack to a file, click Exporting Content Pack Definitions and Content..., select the location where you want to save the content pack, and select Save.
