Import Control File Parameters for Domain Objects

Import Control File Parameters for Domain Objects

Use the import control file parameters to configure the objects that you want to import from an XML file into the domain.
An import control file for domain objects can contain the following elements:
  • importParams. Can contain multiple objectList elements.
  • objectList. Contains attributes to filter the objects by type. Can contain multiple object elements.
  • object. Contains attributes to filter the objects by name.
The following table lists the import control file elements that have configurable attributes:
Element
Attribute Name
Attribute Description
objectList
type
Required. Type of domain object that you want to import. Specify one of the following values:
  • User
  • Group
  • Role
  • Cluster configuration
  • Connection
The value is not case sensitive.
objectList
select
Optional. Indicates whether infacmd imports all remaining objects of the specified type when you define an object element for the objectList. Set to all to import all remaining objects. For example, the following lines import Group1 with a Reuse resolution strategy. The lines import all remaining groups with a Merge resolution strategy: 
<objectList type="group" select="all" resolution="merge">
  <object name="Group1" resolution="reuse" />
</objectList>
If you define an object element and do not use the select attribute, then infacmd imports objects that satisfy the attributes defined in the object element. For example, the following lines import Group1 with a Merge resolution strategy: 
<objectList type="group" resolution="merge">
  <object name="Group1" />
</objectList>
If you do not define an object element for the objectList, then the default value of the select attribute is all. For example, the following line imports all groups with a Merge resolution strategy: 
<objectList type="group" resolution="merge" />
Valid value is all.
objectList
resolution
Optional. Resolution strategy when a name conflict occurs. Applies to all objects of the specified type. Specify one of the following values:
  • Replace. Replace target object with the source object.
  • Rename. Rename source object using a generated name, and then import it.
    You cannot use the Rename option with the cluster configuration type.
  • Reuse. Reuse object in the target domain.
  • Merge. Merge the objects into one object. This option is applicable for groups.
The values are not case sensitive.
object
name
Required. Name of a specific object to import of the specified object type. The value is not case sensitive.
object
resolution
Optional. Resolution strategy when a name conflict occurs for this object. Specify one of the following values:
  • Replace. Replace target object with the source object.
  • Rename. Rename source object, and then import it.
    You cannot use the Rename option with the cluster configuration type.
  • Reuse. Reuse object in the target domain.
  • Merge. Merge the objects into one object. This option is applicable for groups.
The values are not case sensitive.
object
renameTo
Optional. Name to use when the conflict resolution strategy is Rename. If you do not specify a name, then infacmd generates a name by appending a number to the end of the name. Infacmd ignores the value if there are no conflicts or if the conflict resolution strategy is not Rename.
object
renameIdTo
Optional. ID string to use when you import a connection object and the conflict resolution strategy is Rename. If you do not specify a connection ID, then infacmd generates an ID by appending a number to the end of the connection ID. Infacmd ignores the value if there are no conflicts or if the conflict resolution strategy is not Rename.
