ACAPPEXP

Application Exporter allows you to generate command line scripts that re-create Application Center 2000 applications on other AC clusters.  The tool sends the script to the console. In order to create a script file, redirect the output of the tool to a text file, i.e. :

  acappexp > myapps.cmd

To recreate the applications on another computer, run the generated command line script, i.e.

  myapps.cmd

The ACAPPEXP tool uses internal interfaces to enumerate the applications/resources on a computer and creates a batch file. 

The generated batch file uses the publicly available Application Center 2000 command line utility (AC.EXE) and can be run on any computer that has Application Center installed.

The generated batch file performs rudimentary error checking and aborts the script run when any failure is reported by the AC.EXE command line utility.


REQUIREMENTS

The ACAPPEXP tool requires Application Center and can only be run on the cluster controller.
