Command Arguments

Name	Definition
`<FROM_FILE_PATH>`	The name and the path of the file that contains the new configuration of the SAP CC system

Detailed Information

The import command manages a large set of SAP CC system parameters that are defined in a customized XML file.

Config Tool connects to the back-end database system (SAP CC Core Database) that relates to your SAP CC Core Server system.
The user interface retrieves the parameter values from the database and verifies the new values. Refer to the SAP CC System Parameter Reference for more information about the parameter constraints of an SAP CC Core Server system.
Config Tool stores these parameters into the back-end database system.

Caution

The import command will change the parameter values stored in the back-end database system (SAP CC Core Database). There is no undo command. SAP SE recommends that you first export the parameters to a backup file that can be used to restore the SAP CC system.

Prerequisites

You have prepared your file by using previously the export command to have a recent version of the parameters.
You know the types of instances that must be restarted in the SAP CC Core Server system.

File Format

The file format is XML. See the definition details.

Results

You can restart the SAP CC system or the necessary instances of the system to take the changes into account.

Caution

In a high-availability (HA) environment, you sequentially restart the rater instances available in an SAP CC system.

Use

You use the import command to change a list of parameters or to transport a list of parameters. Refer to your tasks and the corresponding procedures for an efficient daily work during the project implementation phase or during the productive operation phase.

Authorization

To work with this command, you must have the Administrator role in your SAP CC user profile.

Refer to the SAP CC 5.0 Security Guide for more user assistance and information about the necessary authorizations.
