Managing snapshots
Snapshots record the state of library items within a process application or track at a specific point in time. You can create snapshots in the Process Center console or in the Designer view. Snapshot management, such as installing, exporting, and archiving, is performed in the Process Center console.
In addition to the topics covered in this section, you can refer
to the following topics for more information about managing snapshots:
- Import and export snapshots of process applications
- Import and export snapshots of toolkits
- Archive snapshots of toolkits
- Install snapshots to a process server
- Undeploy snapshots from a process server
You can create snapshots of the process applications and toolkits that you have created or to which you have write or administrative access.
Before performing any of the following tasks, start IBM® Process Designer and open the appropriate view.
Note: IBM Business Process Manager does
not require unique snapshot names. However, you cannot install a snapshot
of a process application in a runtime environment if a snapshot with
the same name has already been installed. This is also true for snapshots
in different tracks.
