rt-dump-metadata
NAME
rt-dump-metadata - dump configuration metadata from an RT database
SYNOPSIS
rt-dump-metdata [--all]
DESCRIPTION
rt-dump-metadata
is a tool that dumps configuration metadata from the Request Tracker database into XML format, suitable for feeding into rt-setup-database
. To dump and load a full RT database, you should generally use the native database tools instead, as well as performing any necessary steps from UPGRADING.
This is NOT a tool for backing up an RT database. See also docs/initialdata for more straightforward means of importing data.
