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

SYNOPSIS
	   rt-dump-metdata [ 0 ]

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.

       When run without arguments, the metadata dump will only include 'local' configuration changes, i.e. those done manually in the web
       interface.

       When run with the argument '0', the dump will include all configuration metadata.

       This is NOT a tool for backing up an RT database.
