Importing an Archive

Parameter

Description

ARCHIVE_FILENAME

Required. The absolute or relative path to the export archive file. If relative, the path should be relative to the location from where the command is executed.

The archive file can contain an organization with its assets or can contain a set of objects that were exported from one or more organizations.

USERNAME

The user ID of a registered CentraSite user. For example, a user who has the CentraSite Administrator role.

PASSWORD

The password for the registered CentraSite user identified by the parameter -user.

CENTRASITE-URL

(Optional) The URL of the CentraSite registry. Default value is http://localhost:53307.

Note:

If the registry/repository is running on a different machine and port number, you can use this parameter to specify its location instead of using the individual -h and -p parameters. (If you specify the -dburl parameter with the -h and/or -p parameters, the -h and -p parameters will be ignored.)

ORGANIZATION-KEY

By default, objects are imported into the current user's organization. Use this optional parameter if you want to specify a different organization into which the objects should be imported. The keyword is followed by the organization's GUID, prefixed by "uddi:", for example: "uddi:207ff1cc-25c5-544c-415c-5d98ea91060c".

Note:

This parameter has no effect if the -keeporganization option is set.

Option

Description

-setreplace

When an object is to be imported, the timestamp of the object in the import archive file is compared with the timestamp of the corresponding object with the same GUID in the registry, if the latter exists. If the timestamps are equal, the object is not imported. If the archive timestamp is older than the registry timestamp, the object is only imported if this optional parameter is present; otherwise it is ignored.

-keepowner

This option will maintain the original owner of the importing objects. This requires the original owner to exist with the same UDDI key on the target machine.

If the parameter is not set, the importing user will be owner of the objects.

-keeporganization

This option will maintain the original organization of the importing objects. This requires the original organization to exist with the same UDDI key on the target machine.

Note:

If an organization is imported with its assets, this option is automatically activated.
