Use this page to specify options for importing servers and security data.import server definitions.
Check this if you want the status of the imported server to be set to Stopped. This is the default behaviour. You should choose this only if you know that the servers you are importing are not already started.
If you uncheck this option, the imported server will have the status that it had when it was exported; for example, if you exported data for server while that server was running, the imported server will have an initial status of Started whether or not it is actually running. You should do this only if you know that the restored statuses will match the current statuses of your enterprise servers. One reason for doing this might be to import changed configuration information for an existing server that is currently running.
Check this to exclude deployed services (that is, services with an associated package and handler) when importing server definitions.
Check this to ensure that the directory is added to the recently used list. By default the directory will only be added to the list if the import is successful.
Check this if you want to cancel the import where any of the servers being imported has the same name as an existing server.
Check this to exclude from the import any server that has the same name as an existing server.
Check this if you want any existing server that has the same name as one being imported to be replaced by the imported server.
Check this if you want to replace all of the existing servers with the imported servers. If you choose this, when the import completes only servers that were imported will be present in the repository.
Check this if you do not want the security information to be imported. This option is only present where the source directory contains security information.
Where you check this, or where the security details were not included in the export, the imported servers will use the Default ES Security configured on the importing system.
Check this if you want the Security Manager definitions, the Security Manager lists and other security configuration details to be completely replaced by the definitions from the from the source directory. This option is only present where the source directory contains security information.
One consequence of checking this option is that servers that are not replaced during the import will have their security details set to use the Default ES Security configuration.
