Modifying an administration data package

Normally, you do not need to alter the content of the administration data TC XML file. However, after you export an administration data file, you can carefully modify the TC XML content of the file to provide changes for specific sites or groups of sites. Note 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. After passing the Manage Administration Data self-paced course available from Learning Advantage, you can file a support case on Support Center to obtain a key. The course provides the information necessary to avoid potential problems when editing the TC XML content of an administration data file. Following are rules for editing an administration data TC XML file: Ensure the uniqueness of elemId attributes across the TC XML file. Ensure the value of Boolean type attributes are Y (true) or N (false). Ensure the value of reference type attributes are formatted as: Copy # Ensure the value of date type attributes are in GMT format: Copy year-month-dayThour:minute:SecondZ For example, for 09 September 2014 at 4:21:04 AM (GMT), 2014-09-23T04:21:04Z. Ensure the timestamp value is present. Ensure L10N attributes are list of values formatted as: Copy locale:M/S:M/A/P/R/I:sequence:[aA-zZ]^32:translation A locale in the format of en_US: M/S is a master or secondary language. M/A/P/R/I is the translation status. The sequence number is 4 digits for multiple value attributes. There are 32 characters reserved. The rest is the translation, for example: de_DE:S:A:0000::Proxy-Link, en_US:S:A:0000::Proxy Link, es_ES:S:A:0000::Enlace proxy, fr_FR:S:A:0000::Lien proxy, it_IT:S:A:0000::Collegamento proxy, pt_BR:S:A:0000::Link de proxy When editing the attributes that are part of the candidate key, the GSIdentity label of the object, and the label of the objects that reference the object, must be updated accordingly. Ensure all required attributes for the administration object have values. For out-of-the-box administration objects, a user's home, mailbox_folder, and newstuff_folder attributes must not be added. Also, a dataset rev_chain_anchor attribute must not be added. This is true even though these are required attributes. After editing the file, validate the complete file content against LLTCXML.xsd file (low-level TC XML schema) located in the TC_DATA directory to ensure the XML is valid.
