The Server Configuration Export wizard applies the server configuration
that is defined in the configuration archive file (.car) to the server profile
associated to the selected server in the Servers view. The profile's original
port numbers, host name and WebSphere® Application Server installation directory
are preserved. However, all other server configuration settings on your current
profile are merged with the server configuration that is defined in the selected
configuration archive file, in a manner that maintains the differences. If
you are familiar with the WebSphere administrative scripting (wsadmin) commands,
this wizard performs the same functionality as the wsadmin method importWasprofile in
the AdminTask object.
Prerequisite
Restriction- Supported for WebSphere Application Server v6.1.x and v6.0.x1
To export server configuration to a WebSphere Application Server v6.x:

The Server Configuration Export wizard opens.
- In the Parent folder, specify the directory
where the configuration archive is located on your current workspace.
- In the File name field, specify the name
of the selected server configuration file. The file extension should be .car.
- Click OK.
Results:As previously mentioned, the server configuration
on the server is merged with the server configuration that is defined in the
configuration archive file, in a manner that maintains the differences.
