Note:

While exported modules are in an external folder, they can no longer be
modified, referenced, or used in any way as part of the image process.
However, if you ever need the map or module in the future, you can import
it back into the repository.

To export a map or module, do the following:

1.

Create a repository by using the New Repository Wizard; and check the
archive check-box that you want to use for archive purposes. This repository
can be anywhere on the network where the ImageUltra Builder console has
access.

2.

Open the repository from which you want to export the module.

3.

From the Main window menu bar, click Tools and then click Export.... The
Export Wizard opens. Click Next.

4.

In the Username field, type your username.

5.

In the Password field, type your password.

6.

Use the List button to display the list of archive repositories on that server.

7.

Select a repository from the list where you want the exported maps and
modules to reside, and click Next.

Note:

You can only export maps and modules to an existing archive
repository. To create an archive repository, click the CreateArchive
button, then click List to select the repository you want to export to.

8.

A folder view of the repository is shown. If you want to work with a
categorical view, click View by categories.

each map, module, folder, or category you want to export.

Note:

If you want the folder structure to be maintained at the external folder
