step_import

Imports product information from STEP-compliant physical files into the Teamcenter database. Syntax step_import [-u=user-id {-p=password | -pf=password-file} -g=group] {-f=file-name | -i=input-file} [-h] [-v] Arguments -u Specifies the user ID. This is a user with Teamcenter administration privileges. Note If Security Services single sign-on (SSO) is enabled for your server, the -u and -p arguments are authenticated externally through SSO rather than being authenticated against the Teamcenter database. If you do not supply these arguments, the utility attempts to join an existing SSO session. If no session is found, you are prompted to enter a user ID and password. -p Specifies the password. This argument is mutually exclusive with the -pf argument. -pf Specifies the password file. For more information about managing password files, see Manage password files. This argument is mutually exclusive with the -p argument. -g Specifies the group associated with the user. If used without a value, the user's default group is assumed. -f Specifies a single STEP file. The complete file specification (full path and file name) must be supplied unless the file is in the current working directory. -i Specifies the input file containing list of STEP files to batch process. The complete file specification (full path and file name) must be supplied unless file is in the current working directory. -h Displays help for this utility. -v Runs utility in verbose mode, displaying maximum amount of information. Typically, nonverbose utility sessions only display error messages. Environment As specified in Setting up a Teamcenter command-line environment. Files As specified in Log files produced by Teamcenter and the following: Copy $ROSE_DB/*.rose .rose files are STEP schema files used by the STEP Translator. The step_export utility must be able to write these files in this directory. Restrictions Either the -f=file-name or the -i=input-file argument must be supplied.
