exportObject Options

The command uses the following options:

[<-dn | --domainName>]: Required if the domain uses Kerberos authentication and you do not specify the --gateway option. Name of the Informatica domain.

This option uses the gateway connectivity information in the domains.infa file. If the domains.infa file is missing or contains connectivity information that is out of date, you must use the --gateway option instead.

[<-hp | --gateway>]: Required if the domain uses Kerberos authentication and you do not specify the --domainName option. Also required if the domain uses Kerberos authentication and the domains.infa file is missing or contains connectivity information that is out of date. Host names and port numbers of the gateway nodes in the domain.

If there are multiple gateway nodes, separate the gateways with a space. For example:

-hp host1:6001 host2:6002

If you run the command from a machine where the Informatica client or the Informatica utilities are installed, the host name must be fully qualified.

[<-mm | --mmServiceName>]: Required if the domain uses Kerberos authentication. Name of the Metadata Manager Service.

<<-url>>: Host name and port number of the Metadata Manager Service that runs the Metadata Manager application. Use the following format:
http(s)://<host>:<port>
.

If a secure connection is configured for the Metadata Manager web application, the host name must match the common name (CN) used to generate the keystore that you use for the HTTPS connection to the Metadata Manager Service.

[-ep | --encryptedPassword]: Required if you specify an encrypted password. Encrypted password flag. Use with the password option to indicate that the password for the Metadata Manager user is encrypted. For example:

-ep -pw WP+qtfYwB2KYLXID9jgC+6WHbMOg/94AO8R1nOC1vd0=

[<-pw | --password>]: Required if the domain does not use Kerberos authentication. Also required if the domain uses Kerberos authentication and you do not specify the --keyTab option. Password for the Metadata Manager user. For example:

-pw Administrator

To specify an encrypted password, you must specify the --encryptedPassword option in addition to this option.

[<-n | --namespace>]: Required if the domain uses LDAP authentication or Kerberos authentication. Optional if the domain uses native authentication. Name of the security domain to which the Metadata Manager user belongs. The security domain name is case sensitive.

[<-kt | --keyTab>]: Required if the domain uses Kerberos authentication and you do not specify a password. Path and file name of the keytab file for the Metadata Manager user.

<<-l | --location>>: Name and location of the metadata object in the catalog hierarchy that you want to export.
<<-f | --file>>: PDF, HTML, or XLS file name and path for the exported metadata object. If you do not include a path, mmcmd exports the metadata object to a file in the mmcmd directory.
