    Note –

    Exporting is fully operational once these steps have been completed. When exporting is enabled, data records will start queuing for export. If you do not enable the export task, the queue tables will fill up, and queuing will be suspended. It is generally more efficient to export smaller batches (more frequently) than larger ones, but exporting is subject to the write availability of the warehouse itself, which may be constrained for other reasons.


  7. Optionally set the maximum queue size. See Modifying the Configuration Object for more information.
