HP XP Performance Advisor Software - Manual (Page 163)

Importing data
You can import the archived data to another management station or back to the same management
station from where the data was initially exported.
CAUTION:
•
You must import the data to the same version of the management station as that of the installed
HP XP7 Performance Advisor.
For example: If you have installed HP XP7 Performance Advisor v6.0, then you must import
the data to management station version 6.0.
•
The import operation fails, if there is not enough free space in the database to accommodate
the imported data. To start an import operation, HP XP7 Performance Advisor requires that
there be sufficient space in the database, at least matching the size of the exported data. You
must either archive or purge some of the existing data before you begin the import operation.
•
If you are importing data when the auto purge is in progress, the data import activity still
continues. However, if the imported data happens to be among the oldest data that HP XP7
Performance Advisor has selected for purging, the data being imported is also purged
automatically. Hence, it is highly recommended that there be enough disk space available
on that management station, where the data import activity is initiated.
•
Do not move the .dmp files from <HPSS_HOME>\padb\admin\PADB\dpdump\ or copy
the .dmp files to any other location, because HP XP7 Performance Advisor accesses these
files only from <HPSS_HOME>\padb\admin\PADB\dpdump\ on your management station.
