Imports GCS connection types and connection point definitions from an XML file. For more information about using the guided component search, see Resource Manager on Rich Client. Syntax gcs_import [-u=user-id {-p=password | -pf=password-file } -g=group] -xml_file=xml_file_name -import_mode=ignore | overwrite [-h] 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 user and password arguments are authenticated externally through SSO rather than being authenticated against the Teamcenter database.

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. -xml_file Specifies the name of an XML file containing connection types and connection point definitions. The syntax of this file is explained in the EXAMPLES section. -import_mode Specifies how existing data is handled by the import. Valid values are: ignore The existing data is skipped by the import. overwrite The existing data is replaced by the contents of the XML file. -h Displays help for this utility.
