Perform the Query

Lets you perform the query from this computer or from a remote server.

Perform the Query from This Computer
Click this option to run the query from this computer. This option will access the Inventory database on the specified database server and export the data in to a comma-separated value (CSV) file.

Perform the Query on a Remote Server
Click this option to run the data export tool from any server that has Inventory components installed.

Accessing the Inventory database from a server is recommended if you are exporting data from a large database or if you have specified complex queries for filtering the servers/workstations.

From the server console, run DBEXPORT.NCF on NetWare® servers or DBEXPORT.BAT on Windows* NT*/2000 servers. Type
DBEXPORT configuration_filename.EXP csv_filename.CSV
where configuration_filename.EXP is an existing file that contains the data export settings. The data exported from the database will be stored in the csv_filename.CSV file.
