Is it possible to export Gateway settings? Or do they exist as a readable file somewhere? I want to do some configuration control and if they are available I have missed it.
Other suggestions welcome on the root issue of maintaining a working system.
Gateway settings are generally stored inside the internal DB.
It’s technically readable because it’s just a SQLite DB, but not sure if it’s going to satisfy whatever you’re trying to do.
I was hoping for xml, but this should work if -
a) I could find it, and
b) I can actually access it in a meaningful way
I saw some file that might be the database, but none for sure. This is a Windows installation.
There are settings (like in Identify Providers, DB connections, OPC connections that I want to document better and maintain some history on. Cut and paste from the screen is not making me happy.
Picking this thread up again. I was looking at the SQLite db file today and it’s human readable technically yes but is there a reporting function for gateway configuration may be missing? I am attempting to document configuration without screenshots or transcribing configuration into a word document.
Option a) wait for 8.3 when this is all json
Option b) write a converter for the sqlite DB and gateway xml
I don’t have time to wait for 8.3 any longer so I will probably walk down the converter route. Just wanted see if I was missing anything before I walked down this path.
