Importing aggregation templates
To import aggregation templates, complete these steps.
Before you begin
Ensure that the file that you are importing is in the JSON format and was exported from Log Analysis.
When you import an aggregation template, ensure that the required source types exist in the server that you are importing the files into. The source type is specified in the data source configuration. For example, you want to import aggregated data from the DS1 data source, which uses the WASSystemOut source type and DS2, which uses the WASSystemOutExtended source type into another Log Analysis server. However, only the WASSystemOut source type exists on the server. When you try to import the template, only the template that is associated with the WASSystemOut source type is imported. To avoid this issue, create the missing source type.
You must import an aggregation template into a node that is on the same level in the hierarchy. The level is defined by the children that are specified in the topology file. For more information, see Defining the topology for Aggregated Search.
