jcfimport

Function

This command imports IM Configuration Management information.

You cannot use this command unless IM Configuration Management Service is running. Note that this command cannot be executed during remote monitoring. In addition, a maximum of five commands can be executed concurrently.

Executing this command deletes three types of information (host, system hierarchy (IM configuration), and profile) that have been managed by IM Configuration Management before import processing. Thereafter, the information specified by options is imported.

To perform remote monitoring after the import, open the System Common Settings window from the IM Configuration Management - View, review the settings, and then click the OK button.

Arguments

-h logical-host-name

When you are operating in a cluster system, this option specifies the logical host name of the host that executes the command. If this option is omitted, the command assumes the logical host name specified in the JP1_HOSTNAME environment variable. If the JP1_HOSTNAME environment variable is not specified, the command assumes the physical host name. If you do not use a cluster system, there is no need to specify this option.

-i directory-name

Specifies the name of the directory to which files were exported by the jcfexport command, expressed as an absolute path or a path relative to the location where the jcfimport command is executed. This option is mandatory.

-m

Specifies that only the host information is to be imported. This option cannot be specified together with the -c, -r, -g, or -a option. If specified in such a case, an invalid argument error results. If all of the -m, -r, -c, -g, and -a options are omitted, the -a option is assumed.

-r

Imports only host information and remote authentication information.

This option cannot be specified together with the -m, -c, -g, or -a option. If specified in such a case, an invalid argument error results. If all of the -m, -r, -c, -g, and -a options are omitted, the -a option is assumed.

-c

Specifies that the system hierarchy and host information are to be imported. This option cannot be specified together with the -m or -a option. If specified in such a case, an invalid argument error results. If you omit all of the -m, -c, and -a options, the -a option is assumed.

-g

Imports host information, business group information, and monitoring group information only.

This option cannot be specified together with the -m, -r, -c, or -a option. If specified in such a case, an invalid argument error results. If all of the -m, -r, -c, -g, and -a options are omitted, the -a option is assumed.

-a

Specifies that all information is to be imported. This option cannot be specified together with the -m, -r -c, or -g option. If specified in such a case, an invalid argument error results. If all of the -m, -r, -c, -g, and -a options are omitted, the -a option is assumed.
