Exporting and Importing Monitoring Templates

For portability, monitoring templates can be exported to an XML file and then imported into another Enterprise Manager installation as an active template.

Note:

You can export templates from Enterprise Manager 10g release 2 or higher and import them into Enterprise Manager 13c.

Exporting a Monitoring Template

To export a template to an XML file:

  1. From the Enterprise menu, select Monitoring and then Monitoring Templates.

  2. Select the desired monitoring template from the table.

  3. Click Export.

    Note: If you are running an Enterprise Manager 11g or earlier release, use the EM CLI export_template verb to perform the export operation. Note that if the monitoring template contains policy rules from earlier Enterprise Manager releases (pre-12c) , these will not be imported into Enterprise Manager 12c as policy rules no longer exist in this release.

Importing a Monitoring Template

To import a template from an XML file:

  1. From the Enterprise menu, select Monitoring and then Monitoring Templates.
  2. Click Import. The Import Template page displays.
  3. Specify the monitoring template XML file you want to import.
