IXGIMPRT: Import log blocks

Use the IXGIMPRT service to write data to a log stream, specifying a log block identifier and UTC time stamp for each log block. This service can be used to import copies of log data from one log stream to another, preserving the UTC time stamp and log block identifier assigned when the log block was written to the source log stream. The source log stream is the original log stream, the log stream are importing blocks from. The log stream you import blocks to is the target log stream.

In order to use the IXGIMPRT service, the connection to the log stream must be an import connection, issued with AUTH=WRITE IMPORTCONNECT=YES. Note that when you specify AUTH=WRITE IMPORTCONNECT=YES for a connection, you cannot issue the IXGWRITE request against the connected log stream. See IXGCONN: Connecting to and disconnecting from a log stream for information about the IMPORTCONNECT parameter.

You must be in task mode to issue the IXGIMPRT service or else the request is rejected.
