CLI example

This command exports all situations for the "NT" application type to multiple files in the C:\IBM\ITM\BIN\Bulk\Situation\NT directory. The file name for each exported situation corresponds to the situation name with ".xml" extension . The path C:\IBM\ITM\BIN\ would be picked up from the BULK_OBJECT_PATH environment variable; if BULK_OBJECT_PATH is not defined in the environment, the current working directory would be used.
   tacmd bulkExportSit -t NT -f
This command exports all the NT situation details along with their distribution details to multiple xml files in the C:\IBM\ITM\BIN\Bulk\Situation\NT directory.
   tacmd bulkExportSit -t NT –d -f
