ipctrl_importer.sh

Description

This script is a wrapper for running IPControl CLI imports with CSV files.
It validates input, runs the import, generates reject/error files, and reports runtime duration.

Usage

./ipctrl_importer.sh <bash_script> <csv_file>
  • bash_script: Path to the IPControl CLI wrapper script (must be executable).
  • csv_file: CSV file to import into IPControl.

Example:

./ipctrl_importer.sh ipcontrol_import.sh data.csv

Features

  • Validates both arguments exist.
  • Uses static credentials (default: incadmin/incadmin) — adjust in the script as needed.
  • Runs the import with options:
    • -f <csv_file> → import data
    • -r <reject_file> → reject log (same name with _reject.csv)
    • -e <error_file> → error log (same name with _error.csv)
  • Measures and prints total runtime.

Output

For input data.csv, generates:

  • data_reject.csv → records rejected by IPControl
  • data_error.csv → records with errors

Console output:

process took 0 minutes and 27 seconds

Requirements

  • Bash
  • IPControl CLI wrapper script (bash_script) must be available and executable.

Notes

  • Update username and password variables in the script with correct IPControl DB credentials.
  • Reject and error files are overwritten each run.
  • Useful for batch imports and migration automation with BlueCat IPControl.
