Import a modified administration data package

Because mistakes in the TC XML file can cause corruption and possibly data loss during import, import of a modified file requires an authorization key. You can obtain the key from Support Center after passing the Manage Administration Data self-paced course available from Learning Advantage. The course provides the information necessary to avoid potential problems when editing the TC XML content of an administration data file. Procedure In your Teamcenter environment, set the BULK_LOADER_AUTH_KEY environment variable to the value of the authorization key. This enables the bulk load capabilities that are used to import the modified package. If you do not set this variable to a valid value, TEM returns an error message when you attempt to import the modified package. When importing the modified package in Teamcenter Environment Manager (TEM), navigate to the Manage Administration Data page and select the Ignore package validation check box. This enables bulk load functionality that bypasses certain validation checks.
