CLI syntax
tacmd bulkImportPcy [-p|--path POLICYFILEPATH ]
[-t|--type| --types TYPE ]
[-n|--names POLICYNAMES ]
[-l|--listfile POLICYFILENAME ]
[-d|--distribution]
[-f|--force]
where:
- -p|--path
- Specifies the path name from where the files are to be imported.
The XML files for import should be made available in the POLICYFILEPATH\Bulk\POLICY\Productcode\ directory.
The following example would import files from C:\temp\Bulk\POLICY\NT\ :
tacmd bulkimportpcy -p C:\temp -t NT
- -t|--type| --types
- One or more system types. Specify a two-digit character code
of the system type name to import objects. Specify 'Others' to import
objects that do not pertain to any of the two-digit product codes.
- -n|--names
- One or more object names. Specify a list of object names to
import.
- -l|--listfile
- Specifies the file name that contains the list of object names
to import.
- -f|--force
- Imports the objects without confirmation.
- -d|--distribution
- Imports the distribution list of the policies along with other
details.
CLI example
For Windows systems,
this command imports all policies in the subdirectories under the
path
C:\temp\Bulk\Policy\ directory into the Tivoli
Enterprise Monitoring Server that the user is logged on to. The
command executes without prompting for confirmation because the "-f"
option was provided.
tacmd bulkImportPcy –p C:\temp -f
For UNIX systems, this command
imports all the policy objects that are available from the respective
product code subdirectories under the path
/tmp/Bulk/POLICY/.
tacmd bulkimportpcy -p /tmp
Note: POLICY in the directory path is case sensitive in case of UNIX.
This example imports the policy NT_Disk_Busy with its
distribution. Note: the above example will import the distribution
only if the policy was previously exported by specifying the –d
option.
tacmd bulkImportPcy –n NT_Disk_Busy –d –f
