Splitting Conversion Export Files into Smaller Files

After you generate an export file, you can split the file into smaller, more manageable files. This is beneficial for object types such as Control, because it could have up to 130,000 records. To improve performance, you can import multiple consolidation files, of either the same object type or of differing types, simultaneously.

NOTE:  An average desktop PC can typically run only 10 simultaneous conversion import processes.

To split an export file into smaller files

• Launch consoleapp.exe as described in Parameters for Running consoleapp.exe to Convert Strings and use the SplitFile business service method with the parameters listed in Table 44.

  For example:

  "SplitFile: Filename=Control.txt,Lines=2000"
