Accessing the Data Export
Window
Describes how to access and work with the SPECTRUM Data Export window.
Overview
You invoke Data Export when you access the Data Export window (see
Accessing Data Export on Page 2-2). The window enables you to create, save,
open, and modify definition files for data export as well as execute or schedule
the data export. The window is organized into the following sections:
• Application Commands — Includes pull-down menu options and
command icons that enable you to open and save an export definition file,
start a data export, schedule a data export, clear or restore default
definition file parameters, and access on-line user documentation.
See Application Commands on Page 2-3.
• General Information — Enables you to enter a description or comments
about a definition file, specify the landscapes from which data is exported,
specify the format of exported data, specify format options for ASCII
output, specify the data output directory, specify a post-output script or
executable file, and specify a database where data output in an SQL
format is exported.
See General Information on Page 2-5.
• Historical Data — Enables you to specify the data to export from the
SPECTRUM events and statistics database.
See Historical Data on Page 2-7.
• Current Data — Enables you to specify the SPECTRUM data types to
export.
See Current Data on Page 2-9.
