Short Option

Long option

Description

-e <content_dir>

--export <content_dir>

Export SA data from an SA core and store the data in the given content directory.

-f <filter_file>

--filter <filter_file>

The first time you export, you must specify a filter file describing what data to export. After that, if no filter is specified, then any previously-used filter in the content directory is used. For more information on the DET filter file, see Exporting content.

-b <content_dir>

--baseline <content_dir>

Specifies a baseline export against which to compare the current export. This requires that either
--incremental
or
--delete
be specified during export.

-incr

--incremental

Performs an incremental export. Of the content specified by the filter file, export only that which has been added or modified since the baseline. If this option is not given, all content specified by the filter file is exported.

-cf <file>

--config <file>

Specifies the DET configuration file. For more information, see Creating a target mesh configuration file.

-c

--clean

Remove previously exported data from the content directory given by -e.

-d

--debug

Show more detailed debug information.

-del

--delete

Include in the export any content in the baseline that's not specified by the filter file, marked “as deleted”. If this option is not given, nothing is exported “as deleted”.

If used,

--baseline

must also be used to specify the baseline export.

-np

--noprogress

Don't show the progress on the console.

-nd

--nodownload

Don't download the units from Software Repository (the word). IMPORTANT: Exports using this option cannot be imported.

Email a summary of the export to this comma-separated list of addresses. In order for this option to work, you must have added the email notification parameters to the DET configuration file.
