Exporting Properties of Server not in a domain

[Guest]

I would like to export the system properties of several servers that are not members of a domain. Can this be done using export?

Re: Exporting Properties of Server not in a domain

You can do this using the command line version of exporter. It is located in your Hyena directory and the syntax for it is:

exporter.exe .\export.ini domain computer

You must put something in for the domain as a placeholder, even though they aren't members of a domain. Exporter won't use this since you are specifying a computer, but it will look for the computer name in that location on the command line, so make sure you put something in for the domain.

Thanks for you quick reply! I must not be doing something right. From a command line I enter the following: exporter.exe .\export.ini anyname willow (server name) and press enter. Nothing appears to happen. If I then run export from the GUI I get all the servers from my domain.

What do you mean by nothing happens? Does it come right back to the command prompt, or does it sit there?

What is in the output file when after it finishes? Since you are only querying one computer this process shouldn't take very long.

Once I press Enter, I do get a command prompt back after a second or two. What and where would the output file be? Is it the location as setup in Exporter through Hyena?

Yes, it should be the file you specified on the Computers tab in Hyena.
