Import the Base Policy Store Objects

Importing the default SiteMinder objects upgrades the policy store for use with the Administrative UI. The default SiteMinder objects are required to store policy information in the policy store.

To import the base policy store objects, run the following command:

smobjimport -ipolicy_server_home\db\smdif\upgrade_smdif_file_name
-dsiteminder_super_user_name -wsiteminder_super_user_password
-v -f

policy_server_home

Specifies the Policy Server installation path.

upgrade_smdif_file_name

Specifies the name of the upgrade file:

• sm_upgrade_R12sp1_to_R12sp3.smdif
• sm_upgrade_R12sp2_to_R12sp3.smdif

-dsiteminder_super_user_name

Specifies the name of the SiteMinder administrator account.

-wsiteminder_super_user_password

Specifies the password for the SiteMinder administrator account.

-v

Turns on tracing and outputs error, warning, and comment messages in verbose format so that you can monitor the status of the import.

Default output: stdout

-f

Overwrites duplicate policy store objects with those from r12.0 SP3.

If the argument contains spaces, use double quotes around the entire argument.

Windows example: smobjimport

-i"C:\Program Files\CA\siteminder\db\smdif\smpolicy.smdif" -d"SM Admin" -wPassword -v

UNIX example: smobjimport

-i$NETE_PS_ROOT/db/smdif/smpolicy.smdif -d"SM Admin" -wPassword -v

The base policy store objects are imported.
