To use the command-line interface for importing workspaces

To use the command line to import workspaces to a database, you must run the ImportManager.bat file located in the bin directory under the librarymanager directory. Use the following arguments to specify the database connection and workspace data.

Argument	Description
-vendor vendor	Specify the 3-character vendor code. (Required) Vendor codes are case sensitive. To avoid inconsistency, is recommended that you always use upper case when entering vendor codes.
-config config.file	Specify the name of the configuration file that you want to use. The database setting of this configuration file must point to the database from which you want to export workspaces. (Required)
-file file.xml	Specify the name of the xml file from which to import the workspaces. (Required)
[-user user_name]	Optionally specify this argument to assign ownership of the imported rules and components to a user. (Optional)
[-help]	Optionally specify this argument by itself to view the help for this command. (Optional)

For example, you can type the following line to import workspaces in the exp.xml file located in a directory named exported, using the database configuration specified in import.config for vendor ABB.
