Exports a specific OpenVMS Registry database key (and optionally its subkeys) to a text format file. /NOSUBKEYS is the default. The default file format is OpenVMS format. You can also specify that the file be exported as a Windows NT-compatible text file format, which you can use to import key names and values into a Windows Registry. This command requires the SYSPRV privilege. Format: EXPORT KEY key-name key-name Specifies the name of the key to be exported.
1 – Qualifiers
1.1 /FORMAT
/FORMAT=NT /FORMAT=OPENVMS (default) Specifies the format in which the system writes the database. NOTE If you intend to import the exported text file to an OpenVMS system, do not specify /FORMAT=NT. NT Export Registry File format does not preserve OpenVMS specific data structures.
1.2 /LOG
Displays the export progress to the screen.
1.3 /OUTPUT
/OUTPUT=file-name Specifies a name for the exported file. The default output file name is REGISTRY.TXT.
1.4 /SUBKEY
/SUBKEY /NOSUBKEYS (default) Specifies whether or not the key's subkeys are also to be exported.
1.5 /WAIT
/WAIT=seconds (default = 90) /NOWAIT Specifies the maximum amount of time, in seconds, that you are willing to wait for command completion. If the Registry server does not complete the request in the specified interval, REG$CP returns REG-F-NORESPONSE. The default interval is 90 seconds. /NOWAIT is equivalent to specifying /WAIT=0, but there may still be a short wait period.
