Import Services Manually

Manual import type imports specific services that you select. Manual import is recommended if new services were added to the source application during the current session. Manual is the default import type.

Follow these steps:

  1. Open the Operations Console, and select Tools, Import Services.

    The Configure Data Sources dialog opens and displays currently running connectors.

    Note: Each connector entry contains a five-digit ID number defined by the USM schema. For a list of connectors and their ID numbers, see the Connector Guide.

  2. Select the connector whose services you want to load manually and click Import.

    Note: You cannot import services from connectors that have Offline in the Connector Status column.

    The Import Services dialog opens and lists available services in the selected connector. Services that have already been imported contain a check mark in the Exist in SOI column.

  3. (Optional) Enter text in the Filter field to limit the number of services displayed.

    The number of listed services decreases.

  4. Complete one of the following actions:

    The services move to the right pane of the dialog.

  5. Click OK.

    The Import Services dialog closes. The Import Status column of the Configure Data Sources dialog displays Waiting while the console connects to the source. The same column displays Importing while the import is in progress. When the import finishes, the column value changes to Idle, and the services appear in the Navigation pane.
