-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 There's nothing stopping you from saving XML from MartEditor then using the upload option in MartEditor to reinstate it into another database, as long as the target database shares exactly the same physical table structure. This is (almost) exactly what we do in Ensembl for each release of Ensembl Mart.
However, due to the way the config system works it is not possibly to do this on a running system without having to restart any applications currently using it (and, in the case of the Perl API and MartView/MartService, re-run the configuration step to update their local copies of the XML). cheers, Richard David Croft wrote: > Hi, > > I would like to save the super XML that I generated with > MartEditor, and then upload it at some later time to a > running BioMart, to update its attributes and filters. > It's easy to save all from MartEditor.
