Running the Export Tool

To run the Export Tool and save monitoring data in files, you need to execute your batch file. To
execute your batch file, you need to enter the name of the batch file at the command prompt and then
press the Enter key. If you are using a Windows computer, you can double-click the batch file to
execute the batch file.
c:\WINDOWS> cd c:\export
c:\export> runWin.bat

.
When the Export Tool starts exporting monitoring data, dots (...) are issued to the standard output
(for example, the command prompt). The dots increment as export processing continues. If an internal
error occurs, the exclamation mark (!) is issued to the standard output and the Export Tool attempts
to restart exporting data. If the export processing restarts, dots reappear and increment until export
processing finishes.

When the Export Tool finishes successfully, monitoring data are usually compressed in ZIP-format
archive files. To obtain CSV files, you need to decompress ZIP files and extract CSV files out of the
ZIP files. If the operating system on your computer does not include a feature for decompressing ZIP
files, you need to obtain software for decompressing files.

When an internal error occurs during export processing, the exclamation mark (!) appears to signal
the error. If this happens, the Export Tool will make up to three more attempts at processing.
If export processing does not finish through three retries or if an internal error occurs other than those
in Table 25, the Export Tool does not retry the processing. In this case, you need to quit the command
prompt and then run the Export Tool again.
