Calling up the ExportModule¶
In order to use the ExportModule to its full extent, the Password must be changed on next login checkbox must be deactivated when creating a new user in the User Management module in the AdminClient.
An export is started via the command line. To do this, the following command must be entered:
VDogAutoExport.exe /rd:{Directory to Archive} /CFile:{Parameter file} [/account:{User}] [/domain:{Domain}] [/password:{Password}][/token:{Access token}]
Info
We do not recommend starting the export module repeatedly so that several exports run in parallel. This might lead to problems.
The possible arguments and their function are listed in the following table.
The arguments that must be passed each time the ExportModule is called are marked with (*). The login information for the user only needs to be passed if it is not stored in the parameter file. If a token is specified, the other login information does not need to be transferred.
Argument | Description |
---|---|
/rd:{Directory to archive}(*) | Full path to the root directory of the client archive |
/CFile:{Parameter file}(*) | Full path to the parameter file |
/account:{User} | octoplant user that started the export |
/domain:{domain} | Domain in which the user is created. (This argument only needs to be passed if the user is part of a domain and this was not specified in the parameter file). |
/password:{password} | Password of the user |
/token:{access token} | Access token of the user. The access token can be generated in the AdminClient and is required to execute the ExportModule. If a token is specified, the other login information does not need to be transferred. |
Info
The timestamps in UTC time format are always specified both in the parameter file and in the exports in accordance with ISO-8601. You can find more information on this in various sources on the Internet e.g. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601.
