Understanding Your Workspace › Views › Import a View

Import a View

You can import the contents of the Directory List view, Selection view, or the Layouts view from an appropriately formatted Extensible Markup Language (XML) file. A valid XML file is one that contains the exported contents of the same view type from the CA File Master Plus Eclipse UI. For example, to import servers, data sets, and members to the Directory List view, you can only use an XML file that contains exported information from a CA File Master Plus Eclipse UI Directory List view.

Note: Any Import action causes the contents of your existing view to be replaced by the contents of the imported file.

Follow these steps:

1. Select File, Import.

   The Import wizard displays.

2. Expand the CA File Master Plus folder.
3. Select type of view you want to import and click Next.
4. Click Browse and navigate to the XML file that you want to import.

   The Destination Folder field gets populated with the path to the profile settings file.

5. Click Finish.

   A message displays prompting you to restart the application or cancel the import. A restart is required for the imported view settings to take effect.

6. Click Restart Now or Restart Later.

   The view displays the imported content when the application next starts.
