Import an IODF

This task imports previously received IODF data into HCD. You can export and import IODFs between different HCD versions. You can, for example, export an IODF from HCD 1.4 and import it with HCD 1.7. Note that in this case you have to upgrade the lower version IODF before using it with HCD, because the export/import function does not change the format of the IODF.

You can also invoke the Import IODF task by using the Import task in batch mode. For details refer to Import an IODF.

At an unattended target system, the IMPORT batch utility is invoked automatically when an IODF, with its associated job control, arrives at the system.
