About the import directory

After the initial PolicyCenter installation, the database is empty of data. The first time that you start the PolicyCenter application server after installation, PolicyCenter upgrades the database and populates it with data. As part of this initial upgrade, PolicyCenter automatically loads the following administrative data:

  • Root group of the user and group tree
  • Initial security zone
  • Default activity patterns
  • Default roles and role permissions (privileges)

PolicyCenter can also import default business rules on initial server startup, depending on the value of configuration parameter BizRulesImportBootstrapRules.
