Importing security definition folders

The file created using the ‑EXPORT option of the ctmsec utility contains multiple ctmsec commands that describe the various security definitions in your Control‑M installation. If necessary, these ctmsec commands can be modified before the security definitions are imported back to the same or a different Control‑M installation.

Importing updates the security definitions in your Control‑M installation. Use the restore security procedure to replace security definitions.

To import definition folders:

• Execute the script file that was created using the ctmsec utility.

  /home/controlm/securedata

  NOTE: This procedure will work only with a file that was created using the ‑EXPORT option of the ctmsec utility. If your input is a file created using the Backup Security Definition Folders option of the Security Authorization menu, then you must import using the Restore option in that same menu.
