Running the Archiving actions through the Command Line

Question

Hi,
I am not able to import and export archives using command line tools. I want to directly transfer the archive and don’t want to use a shared location. I have created the scripts that I need to run. For that I have created a sequence of steps that needs to be followed. I have mentioned the steps and the command file that I run for each step.
1)     Created a target archive on the target server and set the IsTargetable
<?hda version="10.1.3.3.3 (080807)" jcharset=UTF8 encoding=utf-8?>
@Properties LocalData
IdcService=ADD_ARCHIVE
IDC_Name=CS98310
aArchiveName=TargetArchive
aIsTargetable=1
aArchiveDescription=This is an target archive
aCopyWebDocuments=1
@end
2)     Created a source archive on the source server and set the target archive for this source archive as the target archive created in step 1.
<?hda version="10.1.3.3.3 (080807)" jcharset=UTF8 encoding=utf-8?>
@Properties LocalData
IdcService=ADD_ARCHIVE
IDC_Name=idc
aArchiveName=SourceArchive
aArchiveDescription=This is an source archive
aCopyWebDocuments=1
aTargetArchive=CS98310/TargetArchive
aIsTargetable=0
aExportQuery=Standard Query     ValuePanel      UseExportDate 0     AllowExportPublished 0     AllRevisions 1     LatestRevisions 0     NotLatestRevisions 0     MostRecentMatching 0     CurrentIndex 0     Clauses dDocName:sqlEq: 20     CustomQuery dDocName%=%'20'     IsCustom 0
aIsAutomatedTransfer=0
@end
3)     Create a query for the source archive to select the content
aExportQuery=Standard Query     ValuePanel      UseExportDate 0     AllowExportPublished 0     AllRevisions 1     LatestRevisions 0     NotLatestRevisions 0     MostRecentMatching 0     CurrentIndex 0     Clauses dDocName:sqlEq:20     CustomQuery dDocName%=%'20'     IsCustom 0
(This is added in the previous step)
4)     Export the source archive on the source server
@Properties LocalData
IdcService=EXPORT_ARCHIVE
aArchiveName=SourceArchive
IDC_Name=idc
dataSource=RevisionIDs
@end
5)     Transfer the source archive to the target archive from the source server
@Properties LocalData
IdcService=TRANSFER_ARCHIVE
aArchiveName=SourceArchive
IDC_Name=idc
@end
6)     Import the target archive on the target server
@Properties LocalData
IdcService=IMPORT_ARCHIVE
aArchiveName=TargetArchive
IDC_Name=idc
aImportDocuments=true
@end
The issue comes while creating the archive. I am not able to set the parameters “aIsTargetable” for the target archive and “aExportQuery and aTargetArchive” for the source archive.
Now I create the archive with the archiver utility and tried running the commands (from step 3), but still it fails in the transfer command. The error comes that “aTargetArchive” parameter cannot be found. Now if I do the entire process through the Archiver Tool, its works fine and I am able to view the documents on the target server. I am not able to understand the reason. Is there a problem in the Command Files?
Also I want to check if I can automate it without deleting the batch files and their associated content file.
Thanks,
Noel
