Description

Resolution:
GridServer Managers support the ability to export the Director and Broker configurations and Engine configuration profiles into a signed jar file format and later import this same format to migrate settings from one Manager to another. This can be used to migrate Engines from one Manager to another Manager without reconfiguring all of the Engines, to simplify administration of multiple Manager systems, or to disseminate an organization's preferred default Engine configuration among all clusters in the organization.

To export a configuration:

   1. In the GridServer Administration Tool, select the Admin tab and open the Import/Export page.
   2. Select the configurations you would like to include in the jar. This includes the Broker configuration, Director configuration, and any Engine configuration profiles.
   3. Click Export.
   4. A File Download dialog box appears. Click Save to save the jar file.

To import a configuration:

   1. In the GridServer Administration Tool, select the Admin tab and open the Import/Export page.
   2. Next to the Provide File for import box, click Browse.
   3. Browse to the location of the jar file containing the GridServer Manager configuration export.
   4. Click Upload to begin the import.
   5. A list of configurations found in the jar file will be displayed, with configurations highlighted in red if they will install over existing configurations. Select the configurations you wish to import, then click Import.

When completed, the Manager may need to be restarted for changes to take effect; in this case, a message will be displayed and the Manager will automatically shut down.
