XFER_CONFIG (XPS)

The XFER_CONFIG environment variable specifies the location of the xfer_config configuration file.

>>-setenv--XFER_CONFIG--pathname-------------------------------><
 

pathname

specifies the location of the xfer_config file.

The xfer_config file works with the onxfer utility to help users migrate from Version 7.x to Version 8.x. It contains various configuration parameter settings that users can modify and a list of tables that users can select to be transferred.

The default xfer_config file is located in the $INFORMIXDIR/etc directory on UNIX systems or in the %INFORMIXDIR%\etc directory in Windows.
