Loading the XML Versioning File
To load the file-based or state-based versioning XML file, enter the following from within a windchill shell:
java wt.series.LoadFileBasedSeries <XML_file> -load
where <XML_file> is the absolute file path to the existing XML file.
* 
Only one file can be loaded at a time. Loading a second file overwrites the first file.
To retrieve the versioning file that is currently loaded, enter the following:
java wt.series.LoadFileBasedSeries <XML_file> -read
where <XML_file> is the absolute file path of the file in which the loaded content is placed.
