2.1 The import function

The import function takes JP1/AJS definition information and loads it into the definition information management template, to enable the list view.

Import is only performed from the master file, or from a replicated master file saved under another name. A master file is a definition information management template that contains no execution result information, and can be started from the Start menu in Windows.

The following figure shows a definition information management template after import.

After import, the definition information management template in which definition information is displayed is automatically saved under a different name as an execution results file. Since the template is saved as-is after import, you can use this file to redefine existing units, by modifying and exporting them.

In addition, when import is performed, the last updated date and time of the unit are displayed in the Last updated time section so that you can check when the unit was last updated.

For details about, and output destinations for, master files and execution results files, see A. Files and Directories.

Automatic import

By editing the parameters of the environment settings file, you can have import performed automatically when you open the definition information management template. This facilitates repeated import of definition information for the same unit. The following are the parameters necessary for performing import automatically:

  • MANAGER-HOST or IMPORT-MANAGER-HOST

  • AJS2-SERVICE or IMPORT-AJS2-SERVICE

  • IMPORT-UNIT-NAME

  • AUTO-IMPORT

Note that you cannot set AUTO-IMPORT and AUTO-EXPORT at the same time.

For details about environment settings, see 3.1.4 Environment settings and 3.2 Environment settings parameters.

For IMPORT-UNIT-NAME, specify the complete name of the import unit.

For example, if you want to automatically import /GROUP/NET, specify IMPORT-UNIT-NAME=/GROUP/NET.
