    .Symphony has CLI to import full MDS resource plan xml to cluster and take affect immediately: KC link: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSZUMP_7.3.1/reference_sym/egosh_resplan.html
    . What's missing is the export CLI functionality. Please let us know if this is required immediately for production cluster. Otherwise we target to add the functionality in future roadmap release.
