-image_file=file_spec | -noimage_file

By default, imsimta cnbuild creates as output the image file named by the IMTA_CONFIG_DATA option of the MTA tailor file, msg_svr_base/config/imta_tailor. With the -image_file option, an alternate filename can be specified. When the -noimage_file option is specified, imsimta cnbuild does not produce an output image file. This option is used in conjunction with the -option_file option to produce as output an option file which specifies table sizes adequate to hold the configuration required by the processed input files. The default value is -image_file=IMTA_CONFIG_DATA.

-maximum | -nomaximum

msg_svr_base/config/maximum.dat is read in addition to the file named by the IMTA_OPTION_FILE option in the MTA tailor file, msg_svr_base/config/imta_tailor. This file specifies near maximum table sizes but does not change any other option file parameter settings. Only use this option if the current table sizes are inadequate. The -noimage and -option_file options should always be used in conjunction with this qualifier; it makes no sense to output the enormous configuration that is produced by -maximum, but it does make sense to use -maximum to get past size restrictions in order to build a properly-sized option file so that a proportionately-sized configuration can be built with a subsequent imsimta cnbuild invocation. The default is -nomaximum.

-option_file=[option_file] | -nooption_file

imsimta cnbuild can optionally produce an option file that contains correct table sizes to hold the configuration that was just compiled (plus a little room for growth). The -option_file option causes this file to be output. By default, this file is the file named by the IMTA_OPTION_FILE option in the MTA tailor file, msg_svr_base/config/imta_tailor. The value on the -option_file option may be used to specify an alternate file name. If the -nooption_file option is given, then no option file will be output. imsimta cnbuild always reads any option file that is already present via the IMTA_OPTION_FILE option of the MTA tailor file, msg_svr_base/config/imta_tailor; use of this option will not alter this behavior. However, use of the -maximum option causes imsimta cnbuild to read MTA options from the msg_svr_base/config/maximum.dat file in addition to reading the file named by IMTA_OPTION_FILE. This file specifies near maximum table sizes. Use this option only if the current table sizes are inadequate, and only to create a new option file. The -noimage_file option should always be specified when -maximum is specified since a maximum-size image would be enormous and wasteful. The default value is -option_file=IMTA_OPTION_FILE.

-remove

Remove any existing compiled configuration; for example, remove the file named by the IMTA_CONFIG_DATA option of the MTA tailor file, msg_svr_base/config/imta_tailor.

-sizes | -nosizes

The -sizes option instructs imsimta cnbuild to output information on the sizes of uncompiled MTA tables. The -nosizes option is the default.

-statistics | -nostatistics

The -statistics option instructs imsimta cnbuild to output information table usage. This information gives a rough measurement of the efficiency of the compilation, and may indicate whether or not an additional rebuild with the -resize_tables option is needed. The -nostatistics option is the default.
