myarmimport -- imports ARM data from a database or XML file

The myarmimport command line tool is used to import any ARM data from a database or a XML file into the currently configured database.

Command line options

Usage:

myarmimport [options] import-url [appName][:tranName] \
                                 [appName2][:tranName2]

import-url

URL-like database specification from where to import. See "Database URL notation".

appName:tranName, appName2:tranName2

If specified, only import instances and/or definitions of ARM applications which match this application and/or transaction name. For details about specifying application and/or transaction names read the section "Application and transaction names".

In addition to the options listed below, the myarmimport command supports standard options described in appendix "Standard options" and the constraint options in appendix "Constraints options".

Entity selection options

With one or more of the following entity selection options entities are selected for importing. If a name is omitted, all instances of the appropriate entity are imported. Otherwise only the instances with the name(s) provided are imported.

-a, --apps

selects application instances to be imported.

-t, --trans

selects transactions instances to be imported.

-m, --metrics

selects system addresses to be imported.

-u, --users

selects users to be imported.

-s, --systems

selects system addresses to be imported.

-r, --rts

selects real time statistics (RTS) data to be imported.

-e, --rte

selects real time events to be imported.

-l, --logs

selects log messages to be imported.

-c, --cfg

selects runtime configuration to be imported.

Other options

--all

selects all ARM data to be imported.

-d, --defs

selects only ARM definition data to be imported. Without this option both definition and instance data are imported.

Usage example

The following example shows the output of an import of some transaction data from a XML file called chain.xml in the current directory.

ruppert@debian:/opt/myarm$ myarmimport -t xml:///chain.xml
Imported entities:
Applications: Definitions 1 (Properties 0), Instances 0 (Properties 0)
Transactions: Definitions 3 (Properties 0), Instances 160 (Properties 0)
Metrics     : Definitions 0, Instances 0
Systems     : 0
Users       : 0

The output of the myarmimport program gives an overview which and how many entities (definitions and instances) were imported.
