Export
The Export selection opens the Export Wizard. The Export Wizard prompts you
through the steps required to archive one or more maps and modules to a folder
outside of the repository. Exporting maps and modules to a folder is useful if
you want to clean out unused maps and modules from the repository. Once a

from the repository. If you need the map or module in the future, you can use
the Import Wizard to add the map or module back in the repository.

you through the steps required to create a Network Deployment CD, Network
Deployment CD

a connection to the repository, provide an interface for selecting the desired
maps, and deploy the appropriate maps and modules to the appropriate staging
area (service partition, HPA, or network-staging folder). The standalone
Distribution CDs contain all of the required maps and modules, and deploy them
to the target computer without using a network. A Repository window must be
open before this selection can be made.
