Discuss Qlik QREP Exam Topic 1 Question 19

Which files can be exported and imported to Qlik Replicate to allow for remote backup, migration, troubleshooting, and configuration updates of tasks?

ATask CFG files

BTask XML files

CTask INI files

DTask JSON files

Suggested Answer: D

In Qlik Replicate, tasks can be exported and imported for various purposes such as remote backup, migration, troubleshooting, and configuration updates. The format used for these operations is the JSON file format. Here's how the process works:

To export tasks, you can use the repctl exportrepository command, which generates a JSON file containing all task definitions and endpoint information (except passwords)1.

The generated JSON file can then be imported to a new server or instance of Qlik Replicate using the repctl importrepository command, allowing for easy migration or restoration of tasks2.

This JSON file contains everything required to reconstruct the data replication project, making it an essential tool for administrators managing Qlik Replicate tasks3.

Therefore, the correct answer is D. Task JSON files, as they are the files that can be exported and imported in Qlik Replicate for the mentioned purposes123.

I remember practicing with Task CFG files, but I can't recall if they were specifically for migration or just configuration updates.

I think we discussed Task XML files in class, but I'm not entirely sure if they are the only ones we can use for backups.

Leonida 1 year ago

I'm pretty confident the answer is Task XML files. That seems like the most logical file type for this kind of task management and configuration.

Shonda 1 year ago

Okay, I've got a strategy for this. I'll start by eliminating the options I'm confident are wrong, then focus on the remaining ones to make my best guess.

Mitsue 1 year ago

Hmm, I'm not too sure about this one. The options mention different file types, but I'm not familiar with Qlik Replicate, so I'll have to think this through carefully.

I think the answer is Task CFG files, since the question specifically mentions "files" that can be exported and imported.

I once had to troubleshoot a Qlik Replicate task by modifying the CFG file with a hex editor. Best day of my life.
