patch_SI_5020500

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• An enhancement has been requested to Export/Import any of the
  following existing components within Sterling Integrator:
  - Mailbox Metadata
  - Web Services Description Language (WSDL)
  - Connect:Direct Service(s)
  Furthermore, the corresponding Export/Import processes need to
  be accessible from:
  1) A business process.
  2) The graphical user interface (UI).
  3) The command-line interface.
  Additionally,
  EXPORT / IMPORT of MAILBOX METADATA will  include:
  1) PERMISSIONS
  2) USERS and GROUPS
  3) The option to omit  the USER.
  4) If the USER isn't found during IMPORT when the REFERENCES
  are set up, then a warning message will be included within the
  IMPORT REPORT.
  EXPORT / IMPORT  of Connect : Direct  service instances will
  include:
  1) The SERVICE INSTANCE DATA
  2) NETMAPS and REFERENCES to NETMAPS.
  3) If a NETMAP isn't found during IMPORT when the REFERENCES
  are set up, then a warning message will be included within the
  IMPORT REPORT.
  4) If a NETMAP is found, then it will be linked to this
  SERVICE INSTANCE with the corresponding parameters of the
  NETMAP.
  EXPORT / IMPORT of Web Service Description Language (WSDL) will
  include:
  1)   An option to EXPORT the SCHEMA MAPPING and associate it
  with the WSDL Business Process upon IMPORT.

  Circumvention: None
  

Problem summary

• Task 1>
  Export of mailboxes includes permissions, users and xref.  Would
  like an option to not include the user.
  If the user isn't found during import when the xref is set up,
  just put a warning into the import report.
  Task 2>
  Export of C:D service instances includes the service instance
  data, netmaps and xrefs to netmaps.  Would like an option to not
  include the netmap.  If the netmap isn't found during import
  when the xref is set up, just put a warning into the import
  report.  The Netmap will contain the environment specific data.
  Task 3>
  There is no option on export of WSDL to include the schema
  mapping.  This seems like an oversight.  Add an option to export
  the schema
  mapping and associate it with the WSDL/BP on import.
  

Problem conclusion

• Made the required enhancement and it is working as expected.
