Matrix infrastructure orchestration designer maintains a secure cache in the browser of changes
made during a design session. If a session times out or the browser is closed, changes are preserved
and are available the next time the architect launches infrastructure orchestration designer.

Importing and exporting templates

Matrix infrastructure orchestration designer allows you to import and export service templates.
Templates can be exported as an XML file, a JPG image, a PNG image, or as an Excel spreadsheet.
Templates can be imported in XML format only.

IMPORTANT:

Editing XML templates outside of infrastructure orchestration designer is unsupported

and undocumented. The XML schema is not part of the public interface specification; HP may
change the XML schema without notice. Users who modify XML templates, or who create their own
XML templates, do so at their own risk. Use of an invalid template may cause provisioning failures.
HP may require the user to reproduce an issue using an unmodified, IO-generated template before
offering support.
