Exporting Workload Balancing Information to an XML File

You can export workload balancing information to an XML file.

Production demand information is also exported to an XML file even if it is not displayed in the Workload Balancing panel.

The Export to XML contextual command is available on the first column of the bar chart in the Workload Balancing panel. An XML file can be generated for the system on which workload balancing is running.

Before you begin: Open your session content that must comprise a root system with subsystems and operations.
