Splitting Consolidation Export Files into Smaller Files


When an export file is generated, you can split up into smaller, more manageable files. This is beneficial if you have exported a large number of symbolic strings and wish to import them in parallel running applications.

To split the consolidation export files into smaller files

  • Launch Consoleapp.exe as described in Parameters for Running Consoleapp.exe to Consolidate Strings and use the SplitFile business service method with the parameters listed in Table 46.

    For example:

    "SplitFile:Filename=ConsExp.txt,Lines=100"

    Table 46. Parameters for the SplitFile Business Service Method
    Parameter
    Required
    Description

    Filename

    Y

    Export file

    Lines

    Y

    Approximate number of lines in each file. The application does not break up a set of symbolic strings, so the exact number of lines may not match the value specified with this parameter.
