Start or resume an import session

Once an import session is created and optionally modified, it remains in the initialized state until it is started (or resumed). The following command starts (or resumes) the example NAS import session:

uemcli -d 10.0.0.1 -u Local/joe -p MyPassword456! /import/session/nas –id import_1 set -paused no
Storage system address: 10.0.0.1
Storage system port: 443
