Data Import Manager

The Data Import Manager is a part of PRISM, the Proteomics Research Information and Management System. The Data Import Manager monitors a server share for new dataset trigger files, which are XML files that specify metadata for new datasets to import into the Data Management System (DMS).

The Data Import Manager validates the metadata in the XML trigger file, notifying the instrument operator by e-mail if invalid metadata is encountered. After processing each XML trigger file, the file is moved into either a success or failure directory.

Syntax

DataImportManager.exe [/NoMail] [/Preview] [/Trace] [/ISE]

Command Line Arguments

Use /NoMail to disable sending e-mail when errors are encountered

Use /Preview to enable preview mode, where the program reports any trigger files found, but does not post them to DMS and does not move them to the failure directory if there is an error

• Using /Preview forces /NoMail and /Trace to both be enabled

Use /Trace to display additional debug messages

Use /ISE to ignore instrument source check errors (e.g., cannot access bionet)
