Use the Import Metadata window to import an interchange file into the Data Warehouse Center.
Planning to import a tag language file
To import a tag language file:
In the File name field, type
the name of the tag language file that you want to import. If you
want to search for a file to import, click .
The File window window opens.
Select the tag language file that you want to import and click OK. The file name that you selected is displayed in the File name field of the Import Metadata window.
Click OK. The metadata that is represented by the tag language file is imported into the warehouse control database.
After a successful import procedure, you receive a message with return code 0, and the Import Warehouse window closes. Refresh the tree view to display the objects that you imported.
Attention: If an error occurs during the import process, you receive an error message.
Common errors include:
Importing an object that is dependent on another object that is not present in your warehouse.
Importing an object that already exists in the warehouse and has other objects dependent on it.
Importing a step that is not in development mode.
Importing a tag language file that was not exported properly.
Check the log file to determine what object or relationship was being imported when the error occurred. If the object is not listed in the message, it should be the last object that is listed before the return code and error message information at the end of the log file. Fix the error, then import the object definitions again. If you cannot determine the error or you cannot fix it, contact IBM Software Support or the vendor who provided the interchange file.
