About exporting and importing current sites

The Export feature allows you to capture and store the current state of a site. The Import feature allows you to restore a site to the state it was in when it was exported. This enables you to restore a site to a previously saved state in case the configuration settings
or the service-specific data
of the site become corrupted.

- Note: The Import feature performs automatic FTP port assignments to all imported sites.

You can export and import a site with the following options:

- Configuration settings of the site and all its users

- Configuration settings of the site and its default site administrator

- Configuration settings and service-specific data of the site and all its users

- Configuration settings and service-specific data of the site and its default site administrator

- <Machine Name> is the name of the server.

- <Site Name> is the name of the exported site.

- <Time Stamp> is the time stamp of the export operation, specified in the mm-dd-yy hh-mm-ss ms format.
