Before taking this course 'on the road' consider if you wish to take a
preprepared XPS database.

The preprepared XPS datasets needed to support the exercises are in the XPS
database associated with this project under the ID parent "pickupandgo"

As superuser and from the XPS host directory, the UNIX command line to dump an
XPS database as a .tar file into the host directory is:

%   $gvr_root/xps/admin/bin/xpsadm -export "XPS_host_project"

Let this utility name the .tar file for you ....this .tar file will be created
as a copy of the XPS database and placed in the host project and will be
incorporated into the overall "host_project_number".tar file when you archive
the project prior to travel, 8mm or whatever.

When ready to deliver the training, following the dearchive of the main host
project the XPS datbase can be restored by the command:

%   $gvr_root/xps/admin/bin/xpsadm -import "target_project_number"

It is not nessesasry to create an XPS database prior to this -import command, 
however this operation will overwrite any existing XPS database associated to
the destination project.  This command can be repeated to load the same XPS
database into several student directories ....-import "project_with_the_XPS.tar"
"target_project_number".  You may have to rename the XPS.tar file to get the
local site version of the -import command to recognise the file name ....usually
it tells you the file name structure that its seraching for.

Following the training and as superuser the student XPS databases may be
deleted by:

%   $gvr_root/xps/admin/bin/xpsadm -delete "target_project_number"
