Chapter 13. Exporting a Configuration Version

Abstract

Exporting a configuration version allows you to save a set of profiles to an external file system. This is useful for creating standardize profiles and recreating a set of profiles in multiple fabrics.

Overview

The management console exports a configuration version to a version archive containing the data needed to recreate the original profiles. The data consists of a folder for each profile in the version. Each profile folder contains at least one properties file, org.fusesource.fabric.agent.properties, that configures the container's agent to load the proper bundles. In addition, the profiles folders will contain a copy of any other configuration file used by the profile.
You can reconstruct the exported version by importing the archive into a fabric using the management console's import version feature as described in Chapter 12, Importing a Configuration Version.

Procedure

To export a configuration version:
  1. Select Profiles from the main menu.
    The Profiles page opens.
  2. Select the version to export.
  3. Click Export Selected Version.
    The the version archive will be downloaded to the local file system. The archive will be named version-export.zip.
