For online help while usingWeb Portal Manager, click the question mark to open a separate help window for the current page. There are no equivalent pdadmin commands for importing, exporting, or cloning authorization rules.

1. When providing rule text with the pdadmin utility, enclose the rule text in double quotation marks ("). Double quotation marks embedded within the rule text must be escaped with a backward slash (\) so they are ignored by the pdadmin utility. The XSL processor treats single and double quotation marks equally for defining text strings. They can be used interchangeably, but they must always be paired appropriately. For example:
   pdadmin sec_master> authzrule create testrule1 "<xsl:if test='some_piece_of_ADI =\"any string\"'>!TRUE!</xsl:if>"
