Backup and Restore ELM Objects

ELM objects can be individually exported and imported.  This provides flexibility to selectively backup precise sections of your ELM configuration.  Exporting and importing is accessible from the context menus in the ELM Console.

Note
In evaluation mode, you can export objects, but the import function is disabled.

Export and Import have the possible destination and formats listed in the table below.  For example an ELM object can be exported to the clipboard in plain text format, or imported from a file in xml format.  If you plan on importing ELM objects, then always export them in .xml format.

Note
When exporting individual objects, any objects considered lower in the console tree will also be exported with the item.
 
Export Examples:
 Individual Agent: All Monitor items with configurations (No Categories)
 
 Category: All agents assigned to the Category along with any Monitor Items assigned                to those agents.
 
 Event View: All Filters and Notification methods assigned to the Event View
 
 Event Filter: Only the filter criteria is exported
