Exporting Entire KACE K1000 knowledge base to CSV

Ok so we are moving away from kace as our place to store knowledge base stuff and going to be using confluence. i need to export to entire knowledge base to another format that i can use to import in to confluence. i tried to use SELECT * FROM ORG1.ADVISORY; in reports to export to a CSV but i did not get the entire "TEXT" field.

I need to report to be able to give me everything from every field. Any help is welcome. Thanks

  1. Download and install Toad for MySQL (link)
  2. See this KB article for details on installing the MySQL driver
  3. Start Toad and create a new connection. The details for this connection are located in step 6 in the numbered list in the KB article.
If your knowledge base table has thousands of rows then use the "Export Wizard" in Tools > Export > Export Wizard. Otherwise, run the query in an "editor" window then copy/paste the results to your favorite spreadsheet program.

Technical note: the database engine of KACE is actually "MariaDB" and not "MySQL" but they're essentially the same thing: MariaDB has a few more features and is not owned by Oracle.
