  • Name of the stream where the projects are uploaded to
  • Address of the Rational Team Concert server
  • Path of the folder that contains the lscm command

The .xml technical file that is created at the end of the import is required to import updates from the journal. This file contains information that is not included in the Rational Programming Patterns metamodel, and the list of the instances that were previously imported.

At the end of the import, you can open the report file if errors were detected.
