Export content from MashZone

Before you can import content from MashZone into ARIS, you must export the desired content from MashZone.

Procedure

  1. Open a command shell in the runtool folder of MashZone.

    <MashZone installation>\ppmmashzone\server\bin\work\work_mashzone_s\tools\runtool

  2. To export all data feeds, execute the following command.

    exporttool.bat -user Administrator -password manage -t feeds [-folder subfolder]

    The exported data feeds are stored in a MZP file in the importexport folder of MashZone. If you use the -folder parameter, the exported data feeds are located in a subfolder of the importexport folder.

    Example

    <MashZone installation>\ppmmashzone\server\bin\work\work_mashzone_s \mashzone_data\importexport\myExports

  3. If you want to export the aliases used in the data feeds, execute the following command.

    exporttool.bat -user Administrator -password manage -t aliases [- folder subfolder]

    The exported aliases are stored in the settings.mzp file in the importexport folder of MashZone. If the -folder parameter was used, the exported data feeds are located in an importexport subfolder.

    Example

    <MashZone installation>\ppmmashzone\server\bin\work\work_mashzone_s\ mashzone_data\importexport\subfolder

The desired content of MashZone is exported and stored in corresponding MZP files.
