Resolve issues with the import (Import Issue Resolution dialog box)

While importing an
RSSecurity Server
 database, conflicts occur that must be resolved before the import can continue. If there are conflicts, the
Import Issue Resolution
 dialog box opens.
To refer to import issues later, open the import log file. This file is located in the same location as the database .bak file.
To resolve issues with the import
  1. Do one of the following:
    • To change an action, select the action, and then select a different action in the list. See descriptions of
      Merge
      ,
      Replace
      , and
      Skip
       below.
    • To rename an item, in the
      New name
       column, enter a new name for the item. See the description of the
      Rename
       action below.
  2. To close the
    Import Issue Resolution
     dialog box, select
    Continue
    .
To resolve issues with items that already exist
If a user group, for example one named Operators, already exists in
FactoryTalk Directory
, decide whether to:
  • Merge
     the two user groups with the same name
  • Rename
     the RSSecurity user group
  • Replace
     the
    FactoryTalk Security
     user group
  • Skip
     importing the RSSecurity group
Merge the two user groups with the same name
Merge the RSSecurity user group with an existing
FactoryTalk Security
 user group of the same name. Example: Merge members of an RSSecurity Operators group with members of a
FactoryTalk Security
 Operators group:
  • User accounts in the RSSecurity group
    that do not exist
     in the
    FactoryTalk Security
     group
    are added
     to the
    FactoryTalk Security
     group.
  • User accounts in the RSSecurity group that
    already exist
     in the
    FactoryTalk Security
     group
    remain unchanged
     in
    FactoryTalk Security
    . They are not overwritten.
  • User accounts already present in the
    FactoryTalk Security
     user group but that do not exist in the RSSecurity group
    remain unchanged
     in the
    FactoryTalk Security
     user group.
PIC_Merge
Rename the RSSecurity user group
Rename the RSSecurity user group to import the RSSecurity user group into
FactoryTalk Security
 with a new name. Any security settings associated with the RSSecurity user group are transferred to the
FactoryTalk Security
 user group with the new name.
PIC_Rename
Replace the
FactoryTalk Security
 user group
Replace the
FactoryTalk Security
 user group with the RSSecurity user group. The original
FactoryTalk Security
 user group is deleted and replaced by the RSSecurity group. All security permissions associated with the original
FactoryTalk Security
 user group are also deleted.
PIC_Replace
Skip importing the RSSecurity user group
Skip importing the RSSecurity user group. This skips importing any other security settings that refer to the user group.
Example: If a resource defines security settings for the skipped user group, the resource will be skipped as well - there is a RSSecurity computer group named
Runtime Workstations
 and an RSSecurity resource named
MY_PLC5
 that references the computer group. The
MY_PLC5
 resource is granting all users from
Runtime Workstations
 the
RSLogix 5
\Go Online
 action. If importing the
Runtime Workstations
 group is skipped, the
MY_PLC5
 resource referencing the group is also skipped. This means that none of the permissions assigned to the
MY_PLC5
 resource are imported.
