Export a specific list of servers?

[Guest]

I'm having trouble figuring out how to extract a specific list of servers. We have an environment with over 1000 servers in a domain but I only want to extract info from about 200 servers. Any direction?

Re: Export a specific list of servers?

You can either select them in Hyena's right window, or import at list into an Object Grouping in Object Manager.

To import your list of computers, what you do is create a text file and name it qstation.dat. Your entries will look like:

ServerA Servers
ServerB Servers
ServerC Servers

There are 2 tabs between those. The Servers part I specified above is the grouping folder you will create, and can be named anything you want. Use the same one for all of these computers to keep them in the same grouping.

Then go to File->Manage Object View and click the button to Import Quick Access. Find the file you created and it should pull in the computers and put them in the group name you specified on each line (Servers in this example.)

I was successful with creating the Object Grouping yesterday but today when I created a new grouping and import the specific servers (qstation.dat) the server names do not import properly. The object manager only displays the workstation icon. Any ideas?

Make sure your import file has 2 tabs separating the columns as mentioned above. Beyond that, send a sample of your file to [email protected] and we'll take a look at it.

I've emailed the file.

Your file gave me the same problem, but I have no idea why. I created another file from scratch with the same information and it imported fine.

That worked. Thanks for you help!
