Importing User Groups

You can import user group data into the JUNOScope server from a junoscope-usergroup.xml file that you have saved to the local file system.

To import user group authorization data, follow these steps:

1. In the JUNOScope main window, click Settings > Users > User Group Authorization. The User Group Authorization dialog box appears.
2. Click Import. The Import User Groups dialog box appears.
3. In the File text box, either browse to or type the name of the XML file that you want to import. For example, you can import the default junoscope-usergroups.xml export file from another JUNOScope server or use the provided sample export-import-sample.xml XML file on the JUNOScope server to generate a file to import.
4. To support synchronizing JUNOScope settings imported from multiple servers, select an import method to be used if a conflict occurs between existing records stored in the JUNOScope server and imported records. The available import method options include:
   • Ignore—(Default) An existing record stored in the JUNOScope server takes precedence over any imported record. The imported record is ignored and the existing record is not affected. Any imported record that does not exist in the JUNOScope server is inserted.
   • Merge—If a record exists in the JUNOScope server and also exists in the imported record, the imported record is merged with the existing record and is augmented as necessary. If an imported record is in conflict with an existing record, the imported record takes precedence over the existing record. The existing record is merged with the imported record; however, the fields of the imported record take precedence over the fields of the existing record. Any imported record that does not exist in the JUNOScope server is inserted.
   • Override—All records in the JUNOScope server are deleted, then all imported records are inserted. Before the override operation occurs, a message window appears with the following confirmation prompt: “ The import with override option will delete all the existing records. Do you want to continue?” Select Yes or No to continue.
5. Click Import. The Import status dialog box appears.
