Step 1. Save your schedules and administrator groups
Note This step applies to FileMaker Server 11, 12, or 13 only.
You can save the settings for your schedules and administrator groups that are configured in the
current installation.
1. Start FileMaker Server Admin Console.
2. Choose Server menu > Save Schedules and Groups.
3. Specify where you want to save the file.
After you install FileMaker Server 13, you can then load the settings for your schedules and
administrator groups to instantly configure them in the new installation.
Notes
1 For FileMaker Server 11 or 13, the default name of the Schedules and Groups settings file is
fms11_settings.xml or fms13_settings.settings, respectively. You cannot specify a different
name when you save the file in Admin Console. If you prefer, you can change the filename
using your operating system tools after you save the file.
