  1. Click the Apply these values to all selected objects option to have the domain values applied to selected objects.

  2. Click OK.

    Note:

    The domain configuration is imported in a disabled state. To begin synchronization with Service Assurance Manager, enable the domain and click the Launch Server Reconfiguration toolbar button located on the Global Manager Administration Console toolbar menu.

    If the SAM server is started on a non-default broker, importing an XML Domain configuration throws an error. This issue can be avoided by updating the value of the non-default broker under SM_BROKER_DEFAULT in the runcmd_env.sh file.
