Dialog Elements

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 schedules.xml export file from another JUNOScope server or use the provided sample junoscope-globalPolicy.xml XML file on the JUNOScope server to generate a file to import.

Import Options—Select an import method to be used if a conflict occurs between existing records stored in the JUNOScope server and imported records when synchronizing JUNOScope settings imported from multiple servers, 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 merges 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 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 reset to the default values, then the imported data is updated in the database. 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.

  Note: Access Control Lists are always deleted no matter what import method selected, as they are meaningful only as a chunk. Access Control List data that is imported is added after validation of the data.
