• The download is available from http://www.catalogueoflife.org/DCA_Export/archive.php (see also http://www.catalogueoflife.org/DCA_Export/index.php for partial downloads)
• Copy the download to \bgbm-pesihpc\CoL or any other place you have access to
• The import is launched by ColDwcaImportActivator in cdmlib-apps (https://dev.e-taxonomy.eu/gitweb/cdmlib-apps.git)
• Be aware that the import takes very long
  • >2 days
  • it is highly recommended to not run it into production
• The import is split in multiple parts
  • taxa
  • extensions
  • higher taxa
  • lower taxa
  • synonymy

For performance reasons and because the import make run out of memory it is highly recommended to split it, especially higher and lower taxonomy should be imported separately

• give enough memory e.g. -Xmx9000M (also consider defining your own log file and log properties e.g. by -Dlog4j.configuration=file:///C:/Users/a.mueller/.cdmLibrary/log/properties/log4j_col.properties)
