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 SiteMinder 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.

To import the base policy store objects

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.
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.

Run the following command:
```
XPSDDInstall EPMObjects.xdd
```
XPSDDInstall imports the required data definitions.
Run the following command:
```
XPSDDInstall SecCat.xdd
```
XPSDDInstall imports the required data definitions.
Run the following command:
```
XPSDDInstall FssSmObjects.xdd
