Exporting a Content View Version Incrementally

Exporting complete versions can be a very expensive operation in terms of system resources. Content View versions that have multiple {RHEL} trees can occupy several gigabytes of space on {ProjectServer}.

In such cases, you can create an incremental export which contains only pieces of content that changed since the previous export. Incremental exports typically result in smaller archive files than the full exports.

The example below targets the version 2.0 for export because the version 1.0 was exported previously.

Procedure
  1. Create an incremental export:

    # hammer content-export incremental version \
    --content-view="Content_View_Name" \
    --organization="My_Organization" \
    --version=2.0 \
    --format=syncable
  2. Optional: View the exported Content View:

    # ls -lh /var/lib/pulp/exports/My_Organization/view/2.0/2021-02-25T21-45-34-00-00/
