Import the Policy Store Data Definitions

Importing the policy store data definitions is required to use the policy store with the Administrative UI. The base definitions describe the policy store data.

Important! Before running a SOA Security Manager utility or executable on Windows Server 2008, open the command line window with administrator permissions. Open the command line window this way, even if your account has administrator privileges. For more information, see the release notes for your SOA Security Manager component.

To import the base policy store objects

1. Open a command window and navigate to one of the following locations:
   • Windows—policy_server_home\xps\dd
   • UNIX—policy_server_home/xps/dd

   policy_server_home

   Specifies the Policy Server installation path.

2. Run the following command:

   Important! Run the XPSDDInstall tool with the data definition files in the following order or the imports fail.

   XPSDDInstall SmObjects.xdd
   

   XPSDDInstall imports the required data definitions.

   Note: If you are importing this file for the first time, a warning states that no policy data can be found. This is expected behavior and does not affect the import.

3. Run the following command:

   XPSDDInstall EPMObjects.xdd
   

   XPSDDInstall imports the required data definitions.

4. Run the following command:

   XPSDDInstall SecCat.xdd
   

   XPSDDInstall imports the required data definitions.

5. Run the following command:

   XPSDDInstall FssSmObjects.xdd
   

   You have imported all required policy store data definitions.
