Importing selector components using the administrative console

Import selectors in order to update installed selector components without reinstalling an application.

Before you begin

You must be at the administrative console and have the location of a compressed file created by the export facility.
Required security role for this task: When security and role-based authorization are enabled, you must be logged in as an administrator or a configurator to perform this task.

About this task

Import selectors when you have made changes to selectors in use by installed applications, and you are ready to bring those changes into another cluster or server. You can also use this facility to synchronize your development environment with changes in the production environment.

To import selectors using the administrative console, perform the following steps.

Tip: You can also import selector components using the command line.

Procedure

  1. Display the selectors on the server to which you are importing the selector components as described in "Displaying selector components." Click Servers > Server Types > WebSphere application servers > servername > Business Process Manager > Selectors > Selectors.
  2. Click Import.
  3. Specify the path to the file on the Preparing for importing selectors page.

What to do next

Display the selector tables for the updated selectors to verify the changes.
