NAME

       rt-dump-metadata - dump configuration metadata from an RT database

SYNOPSIS

           rt-dump-metdata [--all]

DESCRIPTION

       "rt-dump-metadata" is a tool that dumps configuration metadata from the Request Tracker database into XML
       format, suitable for feeding into "rt-setup-database". To dump and load a full RT database, you should
       generally use the native database tools instead, as well as performing any necessary steps from
       UPGRADING.

       This is NOT a tool for backing up an RT database.  See also "initialdata" in docs for more
       straightforward means of importing data.

OPTIONS

       "--all" or "-a"
           When run with "--all", the dump will include all configuration metadata; otherwise, the metadata dump
           will only include 'local' configuration changes, i.e. those done manually in the web interface.

       "--limit-to-privileged" or "-l"
           Causes the dumper to only dump privileged users.

       "--skip-disabled" or "-s"
           Ignores disabled rows in the database.
