Example: C:\Program Files\hds\HitDFmon>jre\bin\java -jar HiTrack.jar import device.export
Where commFileName is the comma delimited file to import. After importing the file, restart the Remote Ops (Hi-Track)
Monitor program.
If switch/NAS type devices were defined with non-default alias names (other than 'public' for SNMP or any SNMP v3
device) then for a new Remote Ops (Hi-Track) Monitor install where the alias hasn't already been configured, the alias
name will need to be configured in 'User Management' and the devices, which will appear in the 'Not Monitored' section,
will need to have their 'Enabled' checkbox checked to allow them to be monitored.
The data in HitDFmon.config can be copied into the new HitDFmon.config if the service is stopped or used as an
example to re-enter.
Example syntax
C:\Program Files\hds\HitDFmon>jre\bin\java -jar HiTrack.jar import device.export
C:\Program Files\hds\HitDFmon>
