Exporting Inheritable Extensible Attributes

When you export data, if an object has inheritable extensible attributes associated with it, then an additional column EAInherited-XXX is displayed in the spreadsheet, where XXX is the name of the inheritable extensible attribute. Note that the column EA-XXX displays the name of the inheritable extensible attribute and its value whereas
EAInherited-XXX displays the inheritance state, which is either Inherit or Override. Extensible attributes with the following inheritance states will be exported: Inherited, Native, and Overridden.
Note the following about inheritable extensible attributes:

• By default, the value is displayed as Override for inheritable extensible attributes, which are at the top of the inheritance chain or if the value of the inherited extensible attribute is overridden at the descendant level.
• If the value is inherited by the descendants of the parent object, then the inheritance state is set to Inherit.
• If an extensible attribute is not inheritable or if the status is set to Not Inherited, then the EAInherited-XXX column will not be displayed for these attributes.
• NIOS does not support EA inheritance for DNS objects, but you might see the EAInherited-XXX column in the CSV file when you export data through Grid Manager. Note that NIOS treats these objects as normal extensible attributes even when you enable inheritance for extensible attributes.
