Notes
•
When an internal error shown in
occurs during export processing, the exclamation mark (!)
appears and retries export processing. By default, the Export Tool can retry processing up to three
times. If export processing does not finish after three retries or if an internal error occurs other than
those in
, the Export Tool does not retry the processing. In this case, you must quit the
command prompt and run the Export Tool again. However, you can change the maximum number of
retries using the retry subcommand. For detailed information, see ”
page 56.
If the error persists, contact your HP account support representative.
•
If you specify the nocompress operand for the option subcommand, the Export Tool saves files in
CSV format instead of ZIP format (for detailed information, see ”
page 73). Note that, when files are saved in CSV format instead of ZIP format, the file-saving process
would take longer and the resulting files would be larger.
•
Files the Export Tool saves are often very large. The total file size for all files can be as large as
approximately 2 GB. For this reason, the export process might take a long time (see
). To
export statistics spanning a long time period, HP recommends using the Export Tool more than one
time, rather than using the tool only one time to export the whole statistics. For example, to export
statistics spanning 24 hours, you could run the Export Tool eight times; each time the Export Tool runs,
the tool should export statistics spanning three hours.
