3.6.2 Transfer From CEC/IMC Manager
If a "Transfer From CEC/IMC Manager" is desired, all upload data will originate from the CEC/IMC Manager's hard disk. This is data stored from a previous System Manager upload. In addition, conventional and console unit ID databases can be uploaded from the CEC/IMC
Manager. The conventional database is built using the Conv. Interface Adapter Configuration menu option from the VMIM menu (CEC/IMC Configuration). The console database is built using
the Console User Profile menu option from the Console Configuration menu. A transfer will be aborted if a full transfer from the System Manager begins while the CEC/IMC Manager based transfer is in progress, or if a database file read error occurs. If a CEC/IMC Manager based transfer is in progress and a partial System Manager transfer occurs, the CEC/IMC Manager based transfer request will be "failed," CEC/IMC Manager requests are not queued. This is to allow other GUI clients an opportunity to submit requests.
In the Request box select Full for full upload, unlike System Manager transfers which allow partial transfer requests for units and groups, only full transfers are supported for CEC/IMC Manager based transfers. Select the desired database to be updated from any of the available options using the option buttons in the Entity box.
Read Disk
Choose the Read Disk button to request (read) the selected database files transferred from the CEC/IMC Manager hard disk.
Send to CEC/IMC
Choose the Send to CEC/IMC button to broadcast the currently requested database transfer to the CEC/IMC interface modules.
The Current Status box will show the type of transfer selected, indicate that the transfer is "In Progress," and display a running count of records transferred until transfer is complete, at which time the total number of records updated will be displayed.
It is not necessary to remain in the screen from which the transfer was requested while the databases are being transferred. You may initiate the transfer and then proceed to another screen to perform some other action.
