By using component import functionality, you can edit the HCSC components within the repository developed in multiple development environments using the cscrepctl command in the repository of the operating environment.

The HCSC components, which do not exist in the repository ZIP file to be imported, are to be deleted from the repository of the operating environment in standard import. By using the component import functionality, you can add and update only the specific HCSC components within the repository ZIP file without deleting them from the repository of the operating environment.

The following activities can be performed using the component import functionality:

Activity name	Activity contents	Option to be specified in the cscrepctl command
Adding HCSC components	You can add a new HCSC component while keeping the HCSC components present in the repository of the operating environment as are.	-import
Updating HCSC components	The HCSC component present in the repository of the operating environment is replaced.	-import, -overwrite
Deleting HCSC components	You can delete the HCSC component present in the repository of the operating environment.	-delete

The possibility of execution of the component import functionality differs as per the conditions mentioned in the following table:

Table 4-6 TablePossibility of execution of the component import functionality
