IDRT Import and Mapping Tool (IDRT IMT)
When you first start the IMT, you will see a window similar to the screendump below. Most windows within the IMT don't contain entries. IMT is an Eclipse-based application, so we will stick to their terminology, calling these windows "views".
The different views of the software are explained in detail in a separate wiki page.
First, you will have to define at least one target server. A target server is a connection to a database that hosts one or more i2b2 projects. When you add a target server, you have to provide a number of parameters. Server configuration can be modified later and exported/imported for backup.
Target server, once they are created, appear in "Staging I2B2 Server"
Server
A Target Server is an i2b2-Database-Server, that is used to upload data to.
A Source Server is any Database-Server, that is used to extract data from.
