- In the root of the temporary folder, type loadbesmetadata.exe -i itpolicytemplate04242008.xml.
- After executing the loadbesmetadata.exe tool, review the screen output and directory log for errors.
Note: For BlackBerry Enterprise Server version 4.1.4 running in a Microsoft® Windows® environment with Japanese fonts, make sure that the IT policy rules definitions updates are imported in the Japanese language, by typing loadbesmetadata.exe -i itpolicytemplate04242008.xml -l jp_ja in the command prompt.
Note: The loadbesmetadata.exe tool can be executed from a computer other than one on which the BlackBerry Enterprise Server is running.
