This command exports a process application snapshot from
Process Center.
Purpose
Use the BPMExport command
in connected mode from a Process Center server to export a process
application snapshot. The exported snapshot is saved as a .twx file;
you can import it into another Process Center server.
In a network deployment environment, you must run this
command on the node containing the application cluster member that
handles Process Center applications. Do not run this command from
the deployment manager profile. The generated file is saved on the
machine where the connected server is running. In order to save the
generated file on another machine, establish a remote wsadmin session
from the current machine to the server on the machine where you want
to save the file.
Note: If you are using a SOAP
connection, the command can take longer to complete than the specified
SOAP timeout value. Although the command continues to run until it
is finished, you might see the exception java.net.SocketTimeoutException:
Read timed out. To prevent this exception, set a higher
value for the com.ibm.SOAP.requestTimeout property in the profile_root/properties/soap.client.props
file.
Parameters
- -containerAcronym containerAcronym
- A required parameter that identifies the process application acronym.
For example, the BillingDispute process application might have an
acronym of BILLDISP.
- -containerSnapshotAcronym containerSnapshotAcronym
- A required parameter that identifies the process application snapshot
acronym.
If you are not working with a snapshot, use Tip as
the value for this parameter.
- -containerTrackAcronym containerTrackAcronym
- A required parameter that identifies the acronym of the track
associated with the process application. Snapshots can have a track
if track development is enabled in the Process Center and is applied
for playback on the Process Center server; by default, the value is Main.
- -outputFile filePath
- A required parameter that identifies the absolute path for the
export file you are creating. This name must be unique and must have
a .twx extension.
Tip: If you do not know the acronym
for a required parameter, use the BPMShowProcessApplication command
to list the details of a process application, including acronyms.
Example
The following example illustrates
how to export a snapshot of the BillingDispute process application.
In the example, the user establishes a SOAP connection to the Process
Center server.
Important: In a network
deployment environment, use the port configured for the application
cluster member that runs the Process Server or Process Center applications.
To determine the correct port number, see the WebSphere administrative
console Ports collection page (click and find the value for SOAP_CONNECTOR_ADDRESS).
