Import.exe Configuration

 

Import.exe is the program that imports external data (such Active Directory accounts) to the Secure Access catalogs. It looks at the catalog settings and if it finds a directory port that should be synchronized, it imports external data. After it goes through all catalogs, it quits.

 

You can find it in C:\Program Files\PortSight Secure Access\Catalog Manager\Import.exe (or other path depending on your installation directory). Please note that this directory must be the working directory of import.exe.

 

If you want to import external data regularly, you need to schedule execution of Import.exe. You can do this by using standar Windows Task Scheduler service in Start -> Control Panel -> Scheduled Tasks -> Add Scheduled Task. It's recommended that you choose an appropriate time and period for execution of Import.exe according to the schedule: if you decide to run import every day, starting 0:10 a.m. you should schedule running import.exe for 0:11 a. m. so that it can recognize, that there's a catalog to be synchronized.

 

Import.exe informs you about current activity by writing both to the standard output and to the Application Event Log
