extract.system.id System from which the Investigation Metadata was extracted.
extract.dirname Full path to the target directory where the utility writes extracted metadata ($FIC_WEB_HOME/database/ db_tools/data).

Configuring Alert Viewer Metadata Load

Table 8-16 Investigation Metadata Load Parameters.

Parameter Description
utils.database.username User to connect to the database when loading Investigation Metadata (DB_UTIL_USER).
utils.database.password Password for the above user.
database.driverName Database connection driver that the utility is to use (oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver).
utils.database.urlName Database connection string that the Investigation Metadata Migration Utility is to use.
load.system.id Namethat is assigned to the system into which this instance of Investigation Metadata Migration loads metadata. The system compares the value for this setting to the target system in the metadata file.
verify.target.system Check target name upon loading metadata files.
  • Setting to N prevents Investigation Metadata Migration from checking the load.system.id against the target system specified when the Investigation Metadata was extracted.
  • Setting to Y enables this check. If the target in the XML file does not match the setting for load.system.id or the target is present in XML file but the load.system.id is blank then the system prompts you for an appropriate action. You can then continue with load or abandon the load, and you can apply the same answer to all other files in the session of Investigation Metadata Migration or allow the utility to continue prompting on each XML file that has a mismatch.
