Import / Export

Agent > Import / Export

The Import / Export page imports and exports machine ID account settings as XML files, including scheduled agent procedures, assigned monitor sets and event sets. Log data is not included in the import or export. You can use Import / Export to migrate machine ID account settings, including machine ID templates, from one KServer to the next.

Note: See Copy Settings for a list of the types of settings associated with a machine ID account.

Note: For the latest instructions on migrating an existing KServer to a new machine see the article How do I move my Kaseya Server to a new computer? (270436) in the Kaseya Support Knowledge Base Portal.

Note: Sample templates for specific types of machines can be imported and are available on the Kaseya forum in our Kaseya Connections website at http://community.kaseya.com.
