You can import a Barracuda RMM Script (an .MWS) file into Barracuda RMM. When you import an .MWS file, it includes all the metadata for the script, including the name, author, and description.
Importing a script is recommended when you are moving the script from one Service Center environment to another. For example, from a test environment to a production environment, or for cases when you share scripts with other partners using the forums on the partner portal.
When a script is imported, its category is added to the system, if it doesn't already exist.
Version checking is performed when importing a script that is already on the system. If you attempt to import an older version of the script than is present on the system, you receive a warning. Any scheduled tasks based on this script are updated to the new script. Keep the update in mind in when script parameters have been modified in the newer version. For example, if an optional parameter is changed to required, any tasks based on the older version of the script no longer function and are deleted. You must then reschedule the task after importing the newer version of the script.
Importing a script is different than adding a new script to Service Center. When you add a new script, you are adding just the script file, and then configuring the metadata and parameters. For more information on adding scripts, see About Adding Scripts.
- In Service Center, click Automation > Library.
- From the More Actions list, select Import.
- Click Browse and locate the script to import, and then click Open.
