Good point John FYI The ITSM 751 suite is very big, it has around 2000 forms, 28000 active links, 13000 filters, 1400 active link guides, 850 filter guides, 1800 menus, etc
If you add SRM and SLM, you'll add even more objects... The definitions file is in the hundreds of MBs, although I cannot exactly tell you, since I have not exported the whole thing in one shot, and I ain't gonna do exports by chunks. I rely on database backups, done on the development and UA databases too (you have too). However, with good compression (winzip 12), you can probably shrink that monster def file too something more manageable, let's say 20-30 MBs. That's the nature of the beast....

As an FYI. I have a dump of an internal system (TimeTracker) -- which is maybe 30 forms and 1000 actlink/filters. It is 15MB as an xml. 579365 -- lines. I would imagine ITSM7 to be 100x as big. I think the arsexporter -- is the way to go. (lots of small files) Cause -- once you have that big .xml file -- it is a pain to use. -John _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Platinum Sponsor:rmisoluti...@verizon.net ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"
