You can quickly populate the Operations Console with IMS Connect systems using a configuration file created by IMS Connect Extensions.
Configuration files can be used to distribute a standard configuration to many
Operations Console users at once. You can obtain a configuration file
in the following ways:
- By generating one from definitions stored in your IMS Connect Extensions repository using the definition
extract utility.
Example JCL: create a configuration file for import in
the Operations Console in the Definition extract utility topic in
the IMS Connect Extensions User's
Guide.
- By exporting a definitions file from an existing installation of the Operations Console. To do this, click
in the Navigation toolbar, and then click
Export IMS Connect Extensions Configuration.
-
From the Navigation view toolbar, click
, and then click Import IMS Connect Extensions
Configuration.

In the Import dialog, navigate to the configuration file that you want
to import and then click Open.
The systems and groups in this configuration file are added to your workspace.
