Click Proceed to replace the entry with a new one. Click Skip to retain the entry.
When the process is complete, the Status column shows results for each listed Archive File. See Grid Details for a discussion of the Status column.
During the registration process, the Import Archive File Security dialog is displayed for each listed Security File. Use this dialog to identify the File Access Definition for the Archive File and to provide the Security File password.
Use FAD Name to associate the Archive File with a File Access Definition. By default, the name of the File Access Definition previously associated with the Archive File is displayed.
You must either associate the Archive File with a File Access Definition in the current Optim Directory or create a new File Access Definition from specifications in the Security File. The File Access Definition name specified in the Import Archive File Security dialog need not match the name originally associated with the Archive File.
If you enter the name of a File Access Definition that does not exist in the Optim Directory, a new FAD is created from specifications in the Security File and you are prompted to create an ACL for the new FAD.
If you enter the name of an FAD that exists in the Optim Directory, you are prompted to overwrite the existing definition, use the existing definition, or skip the import of the Archive File. If you overwrite the existing File Access Definition, you are prompted to create an ACL for the new definition.
