Importing Business Analytics Global Attributes

Appendix : Administration : Business Analytics Server Administration : Deploying Business Analytics Instances, Clusters or Artifacts : Importing Business Analytics Global Attributes

you must have a Business Analytics Global Attribute export file to import. See Exporting Business Analytics Global Attributes for instructions.

Note:

This command is available only in Business Analytics 3.2 or later.

1. If it is not started, start the Business Analytics Server for the Business Analytics Repository where you wish to import data. See Start and Stop the Business Analytics Server for instructions.

2. Open a command window and move to the MashZoneNG-install/prestocli/bin folder.

3. Enter this command:

padmin importGlobalAttribs -f input-file [-l prestoURL]
-u username -w password [-c] [-o] [-v]

-f input-file: is the path and name of the export file to import data from.

-l prestoUrl: is optional. Use this if the Business Analytics Server is remote or is not running in Tomcat on the default Tomcat port. If you omit this option, this defaults to http://localhost:8080/mashzone/edge/api.

-u username: is the Business Analytics username to log in with. This account must have Business Analytics administrator permissions.

-p password: is the Business Analytics password to log in with.

-c: is an optional flag to allow the import process to continue if errors occur during the import. By default, any import errors stop all further processing.

-o: is an optional flag to allow import information for a Business Analytics Global Attribute to overwrite an existing Business Analytics global attribute with the same ID.

-v: is an optional flag to turn on verbose logging.

Messages and errors from the import process are sent to the console window (stdout).Once the import is successfully finished, you may confirm that Business Analytics Global Attributes have been imported in Business Analytics Hub.
