NMIMPORT Command

The NMIMPORT command imports an exported copy of a Notification Manager database.

Important: This command destroys all existing data in the database before importing new data.

This command has the following format:

ADDRESS VOX "NMIMPORT PATH(path)"

PATH: Specifies the name of the path from which the exported database is retrieved.

Return Information:

After the NMIMPORT command executes, it sets the special REXX return code variable RC.

If the command executes successfully, the RC variable contains a value of zero.
If the command does not execute successfully, the RC variable contains a non-zero value. Additionally, the VOX.ERROR variable contains the complete VOX error message, which includes the four-digit return code and complete error message text.

Usage Notes:

It is important that the database is not being used when issuing the NMIMPORT command. To guarantee this, shut down the CA-AP NM Gateway Server service before running the NMIMPORT command.
CA does not support importing a Notification Manager database that has been exported from a newer release of CA Automation Point into an older release of CA Automation Point.

Example:

The following example imports a copy of an exported database that resides in the G:\TEMP_EXP directory:

ADDRESS VOX "NMIMPORT PATH(G:\TEMP_EXP)"
