Export applications

 

---

Exporting applications enables you to back them up and preserve their binding information. One can export your applications before you update installed applications or before you migrate to a different version of the WebSphere Application Server product.

1. Export an enterprise application to a location of your choice:

   $AdminApp export app1 ./exported.ear
   

   where app1 is the name of the application that will be exported and ./exported.ear is the name of the file where the exported application will be stored.

2. Export Data Definition Language (DDL) files in the enterprise bean module of an application to a destination directory:

   $AdminApp exportDDL app1 ./directory
   

   where app1 is the name of the application whose DDL files will be exported and C:/mystuff is the name of the directory where the DDL files export from the application.
