Backup Java Device Manager Switch List

[Uthar]

Does anybody know which file(s) on your local machine keep the list of switches I've connected to with my JDM client? If you open JDM and Device, then "Open last by SNMPv1/v2", I'd like to export that list to a file I can backup somewhere so I can re-import it when I re-install my laptop. I know you can get the list of IPs by copy and paste, but I was wondering about exporting everything (including SNMP strings) so I can just re-connect after I'm doing re-installing the OS and Apps. Here are the places I've checked (running Vista Enterprise edition, 32-bit):

- The registry, searched for jdm and java device, and it came up with a few results but nothing that pointed to a save location.
- The application folder (C:\Program Files\Nortel\JDM), but couldn't find a file that would seem to hold the info
- c:\users\my_user_name\ : Looked in appData, didn't see anything for Nortel or JDM.
- Looked through JDM itself for any export options, didn't see any.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Tim

It's in a hidden folder so you'll need to change the folder/view options to see it within Windows.

C:\Documents and Settings\<USERID>\JDM

You are looking for the two XML files in that directory.

If you are using Vista then it would be C:\Users\<USERID>\JDM

Good Luck!

Thanks for the info. After I tracked down the two file names (dm.xml and dm_devices.xml) I did a search and found them installed under the administrator account.

so C:\Users\Administrator\jdm is where they were located for me anyways.

I appreciate the help, have a good one,
