Hi Gurus,

OS is windows server 2016.

In command prompt (run as administrator), navigated to "Domain_Home\bitools\bin" and ran importarchive command as follows "importarchive.cmd ssi ABC.bar [noauthorization] encryptedpassword=xyz

when i ran this, i got the "import" process going and i noticed messages like...

Executed successfully preImportArchive for OfflineJaznContentPlugin Status object: true

Executed successfully importArchive for OfflineJaznContentPlugin Status object: true

Executed successfully postImportArchive for OfflineJaznContentPlugin Status object: true


I mentioned "[noauthorization]" in the import command, still wonder why this security is being imported.

Can you share the correct syntax so that i can exclude security and import/export only RPD and catalog to/from an instance.


Thanks

    Out of curiosity: Why do you have square brackets around [noauthorization] but not around encryptionpassword?

    USAGE : <service instance key> <location of bar file to import> [nodatamodel] [nocontent] [noauthorization] [nodatasets] [nosearch] [noaction] [encryptionpassword=<encryption password for connections>]
 Description         : Import bar as a service instance
 Mandatory Arguments : service instance key and location of bar file
 Optional Arguments  : exclude list of values:nodatamodel nocontent noauthorization nodatasets nosearch
         nodatamodel        : Do not import RPD metadata content
         nocontent          : Do not import WEBCAT metadata content
         noauthorization    : Do not import JAZN metadata content
         nodatasets         : Do not import DSS metadata content
         nosearch           : Do not import Search metadata content
         noaction           : Do not import Action metadata content
         encryptionpassword : Encryption password for connections if any


    The square brackets in the help are only there to show you what are the optional arguments. It doesn't mean you literally type "[" and "]". Otherwise your own command should also say

    importarchive.cmd ssi ABC.bar [noauthorization] [encryptedpassword=xyz]

    Hi Chris,

    Earlier i ran the command but without any optional parameters. At that time i did not use any square brackets for "encryptionpassword".

    So again followed suit.

    Thanks

    Hi gurus!
    I need to only import the definition of application roles.
    Shall I use "nodatamodel nocontent nodatasets nosearch" ?
    Thanks!
