Exporting Resources

Use the Export Resources page to Export Projects or Export Resources. If you choose to export a full project, one or more projects can be selected for export. You can still expand the projects to see folders and resources but selection is only at the project level. Also, Include Dependencies cannot be selected.

You can export projects and resources whether you are working within a session or outside of a session. If you export within a session, the resources are session resources and the configuration may be incomplete or have conflicts. If you export outside of a session, the resources are activated core resources.

ALSB cannot export the users, groups, or roles that you create in the Security Configuration module of the ALSB Console. Neither can it export credential maps or other security-provider data that you create in the WebLogic Server Administration Console. Instead, use the WebLogic Server Administration Console to export this data. See Migrating Security Data in Securing WebLogic Server.

  1. Select System Administration > Export Resources.
  2. The Export Resources page displays the list of objects in your configuration. The name, type, last modified time, and references for each object are displayed.

    For services, the last modified timestamp reflects the modifications made to the service definition, as well as to the service transport or pipeline configuration. It does not, however, reflect the changes made to the alerts defined for that service.

  3. Select whether to Export Projects or Export Resources.
  4. Note: Exporting projects might cause resource deletion when you import the full project JAR file. For more information, see Importing Resources.
  5. Select the projects or resources you want to export. If you selected Export Projects, you cannot deselect the check boxes for individual resources.
    1. Expand the project folders. The name, type, last modified time, and references for each resource contained in the project are displayed.
    2. Select the check boxes associated with the projects or resources you want to export.
    3. Clear the check boxes associated with the projects or resources that you do not want to export.
  6. If you selected Export Resources, select or clear the Include Dependencies check box. Use this option to export any other resources that this resource references.
  7. Click Export to create a JAR file and export it.
