NA: export / import all relevant settings (for setting up NA newly on different servers / DBs)

[uwi]

The possibility to export/import all relevant settings when setting up NA newly on different server(s) and database(s)

• the whole construct of users, usergroups, usergroup membership, user roles and permissions and their dependencies
• device-groups and memberships and their dependencies,
• admin settings
• reports
• the whole construct of change-plans, policies, diagnostics etc. and the necessary device-groups and their dependencies
• scheduled tasks (the whole construct of device-groups, diagnostics .. and their dependencies ... )
• device password rules
• software image sets and images
• software levels
• event notification & response rules
• enhanced custom fields setup
  These items are mentioned, because we use them now. 

All the other not mentioned settings should of course also be ex- and importable, like

• Custom Data Setup,
• Security Partitions,
• Gateways,
• LDAP- Setup
• Workflow Setup
• ....
  Logically you should also provide easy migration possiblities between databases (old against new, postgres against oracle and vice versa .. )
