Importing policy sets into your workspace

In addition to using the policy sets that ship with the product, you can import policy sets that were exported from a server. After importing these policy sets into your workspace, you can attach them to your Web services and clients.

Prerequisite: Your file system contains policy sets that were exported from a server. You might obtain these policy sets, for example, by using an administrative console for the server or by contacting your Web service provider. Exported policy sets are stored in .zip files.

To import policy sets into your workspace:

  1. On the main menu, click

    Import | Web services | WebSphere Policy Sets.

  2. Browse to the .zip file containing the policy set, and click Finish. The policy sets that you have imported are displayed in the Service Policies preferences page.

Once you have imported a policy set you can set it as the default, delete it, or restore the original settings in the Service Policies Preferences page.
