Exporting BIM service processing definitions using the exportdefservice utility

This procedure describes how to export BIM service processing definitions from the Control-M/EM database to an output file, using the exportdefservice utility.

To export service processing definitions:

1. Do one of the following:
   • UNIX: Log on to a Control-M/EM account.
   • Windows: Open a command prompt window where Control-M/EM is installed. You do not need to be in the Control-M/EM database directory.

     NOTE: For Windows client installations, open a command prompt window and navigate to the <EM Instance Name>\bin directory.

2. Enter one of the following commands:
   • emdef exportdefservice [-u <user> [-p <password>] | -pf <password File>] -s <GUI Server Name> -arg <args file name> -out <file name>
   • emdef exportdefservice [-USERNAME <user> [-PASSWORD <password>] | -PASSWORD_FILE <password file>] -HOST <GUI Server Name> -ARG_FILE <args file name> -OUT_FILE <file name>

   NOTE: For Windows you do not need to use the emdef prefix.

   For details about the exportdefservice parameters and options, see exportdefservice parameters and emdef switches.

   For more information about the args file name, see exportdefservice arguments file.
