Import the Database

Note: For information about how to use the Admin Import interface, see the Online Help.

1. Log in to [set to your product name] r12.1 using an account that has System Admin privileges.
2. Select the Administration tab, sub tab Repositories.
3. Click Import (above the Repository list).

   The Admin Object Import form displays.

   Note: The output files on the USS platform are written in EBCDIC encoding. Convert these files to ACSII before you use the files. Use the ftp command from the windows command line, and download the file in ASCII mode. This download converts the EBCDIC files to ASCII automatically.

4. Select Repository, and then browse and select the Repository.XML file that was created during export.
5. (Optional) Select Role and User, and then browse and select the Role.XML and User.XML files that were created during export.

   Note: If you are doing individual imports, use the following order:

   • Repository
   • Role
   • User

   Otherwise, Repository-to-Role and Role-to-User assignments can be lost.

6. Click Import to perform the import.
   1. If Role.XML was not previously processed, select the sub tab Roles and then repeat steps 3-6 for Roles.
   2. If User.XML was not previously processed, select the sub tab Users and then repeat steps 3-6 for Users.
