→ Ensure that you have the roles fitting to the current release. In case of doubt raise a message to PowerConnect support: Raising a PowerConnect Support Request.
→ Ensure that you put the roles as transports into co and datafile directory of transdir.
Start transaction STMS.
Change to Import Queue view and navigate to menu point “Extras → Other Requests → Add”.
Select transport “N71K905306” (the transport is release dependent and might has different number in actual release. Please use the one shared with installation packages).
Add the transport request to the queue.
Finally select the transport and import it by navigating to menu item ”Request → Import”.
Ensure that you check “Ignore Invalid Component Version” in the subsequent Options menu. This is needed to avoid errors that may rise in the following import phase.
Ensure that the transport containing the authorization object is imported into the client in which PowerConnect is installed and administered. In other words import the transport into the client in which the BC set activation was performed
