Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.

Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |

Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse

A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Export Configuration Set
The Export Configuration Set utility enables you to export a configuration set to a configuration dump file. Configuration dump files can later be imported to the same instance of Configuration Manager but with a different name, or a different instance of Configuration Manager. This is useful, for example, when you have a staging/test environment and would like to migrate the configuration set to a production environment.
Note This functionality is also available within the Configuration Manager UI. Use this utility only in situations where for some reason the UI is locked, for example, when you started Configuration Manager with an invalid configuration and the server cannot start.
This utility does not require the Configuration Manager server to be up.
To export a configuration set:
Run the following command:
<Configuration_Manager_installation_directory>\bin\export-cs.bat <database properties> <configuration set ID><dump file name>
where <database properties> can be specified by pointing to the location of the database.properties file or by specifying each database property.
To locate the configuration set ID, run the Export Configuration Set utility using the --history or --drafts options to list all historic and draft configuration sets. Historic configuration sets include all configuration sets that were ever activated, including the current configuration set.
Following are the command line <options>:
Option | Description |
---|---|
--connection-url |
Database connection URL Note Use this only if -p is not used. Use it with --dialect, --driver, --username and --password. |
--dialect |
Database dialect. Supported dialects: H2Dialct, SQLServerDialect, Oracle9iDialect, Oracle10gDialect Note Use this only if -p is not used. Use it with --connection-url, --driver, --username and --password. |
--driver |
Database driver class name. For example: org.h2.Driver, net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver, oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver. Note Use this only if -p is not used. Use it with --connection-url, --dialect, --username and --password. |
--drafts | Display the configuration set drafts - all non-activated configuration sets |
-f <filename> --file <filename> |
Dump file name Note This option is required |
-h --help |
Usage message |
--history | Display the configuration set history - all activated configuration sets |
-i <id> --Id <id> |
ID of the configuration set to export |
-p <file> --database-properties <file> |
Location of the database.properties file. Note This option is required unless you use --connection-url, --driver, --username and --password to specify the database properties. |
--password |
Database password Note Use this only if -p is not used. Use it with --connection-url, --dialect, --driver and --username. |
--username |
Database username Note Use this only if -p is not used. Use it with --connection-url, --dialect, --driver and -password |
--verbose | Verbose mode |

An example of how to list historic configuration sets is:
cd <CM installation home>\bin\ export-cs.bat -p ..\conf\database.properties --history
-
To export a configuration set:
<cm-install>\bin\export-cs.bat -p <database.properties location> -i <configuration set id> -f <dump filename>
For example, to export a configuration set with an id 1 to the dump.zip:
cd <CM installation home>\bin\ export-cs.bat -p ..\conf\database.properties -i 1 -f dump.zip
