Exporting referenced items

Components that you export might be dependent on other components to function as intended. For example, if you want to export a job resource and the job resource references an action to be performed when the job completes, OpenEdge Management automatically includes that action in the exported file.

Figure 9–1 and Figure 9–2 show implicit and explicit components.

Figure 9–1: Explicit and implicit components selected for export

An explicit component is one that you select. An implicit component is one that is also exported because a selected component has a dependency on it.

In the Components selected for export list shown in Figure 9–1, the DB_LogFileMonitor_RuleSet is explicitly exported; the BI_file_threshold_percentage, BI_processing_stalled, System_Error, BI_file_threshold_reached, and DB_Shutdown rules and are implicitly exported because the rule set is dependent upon their availability.

Figure 9–2: Implicit and explicit components export confirmation

The Exported components list that appears in Figure 9–2 confirms that the explicitly selected component and its five component dependents have in fact been successfully exported. The implicit components are dimmed to identify their dependency.
