Decompress export.tar on your computer. The Export Tool is installed. Also, a new directory
named export is created.

NOTE:

• The export directory contains a couple of files, which include runWin.bat. It is recom-

mended that you delete runWin.bat because this file is no longer needed.

• The Export Tool program is a Java class file and is located in the export/lib directory.

Using the Export Tool

To export monitoring data, you must prepare a command file and a batch file. This section explains
