Question:
Can we modify ACO individual attributes using XPS explorer ?
Answer:
No, you can modify Name, Desc but Attributes are presented like a global string.
If you would like to modify individual attributes and you can not use the AdminUI you can :
1. Use XPSExplorer to create a cart with only the ACO you want to modify
>> to create the cart you have to browse the ACO and add to the Cart
example :
OBJECT MENU ************************************************************ #2355
......................... Object Meta Data ........................
XID: CA.SM::[email protected]
Actual Class: CA.SM::AgentConfig
Base Class: CA.SM::AgentConfig
In Cache: yes (4)

Then you will have to go back to the main menu : Q / Q / Q and go to the XCat management (X) to save the Cat to a new file

2. Use XPSExport to create an export file with the XCart generated
>>>> XPSExport <outputfile> -xf <XCartfile> -npass
3. Use XPSExplorer to delete the ACO
4. Edit the Export file generated and edit the attribute
5. Use XPSImport to import the ACO
>>>> XPSImport <inputfile> -npass
6. Verify the import of the ACO using the XPSExplorer
7. Restart the policy Server and AdminUI to have the change fully changed in the whole system
