Exporting systems from the System Tree

You can export a list of systems from the System Tree to a .txt file for later use. Export at the group or
subgroup level while retaining the System Tree organization.
It can be useful to have a list of the systems in your System Tree. You can import this list into your
McAfee ePO Server to quickly restore your previous structure and organization.
This task does not remove systems from you System Tree. It creates
a .txt file that contains the names and structure of systems in your
System Tree.
