Assigning unique name to skin

WebSphere Portal SPI allows you to assign a theme to a page or skin to portlet window pro-grammatically, but if you want to do that then you will have to assign unique name to skin but i could not find any way to assign unique name to skin using Admin console so this is what i did

• First install skin on portal using Theme and Skins portlet


• Then i did full export of the portal using xmlaccess


• Then i did find the skin to which i want to assign unique name and copied into a different xml like this
  

  
  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
  <request xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" build="wp6103_201_01" 
  type="update" version="6.1.0.3" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="PortalConfig_6.1.0.2.xsd">
      <portal action="locate">
    <skin action="update" active="true" default="false" domain="rel" objectid="K_VVILMKG10GV1F0IIS98H1C0002" 
    resourceroot="empty" type="default" 
   uniquename="com.webspherenotes.emptyskin" >
              <localedata locale="en">
                  <title>Empty</title>
              </localedata>
      </skin>
      </portal>
  </request>    
  

  
  In this skin element i did add uniquename attribute with value equal to the unique name that i want to assign
  


• Import this xmlaccess script into the portal
