3.9 Step 7: Create the TUXCONFIG File

There are two forms of the configuration file:

  • An ASCII version of the file, created and modified with any editor. Throughout the Oracle Tuxedo documentation, the ASCII version of the configuration file is referred to as the UBBCONFIG file. You can choose any name for the configuration file.
  • The TUXCONFIG file, a binary version of the UBBCONFIG file created using the tmloadcf command. When the tmloadcf command is executed, the environment variable TUXCONFIG must be set to the name and directory location of the TUXCONFIG file. The tmloadcf command converts the configuration file to binary form and writes it to the location specified in the command.

For more information about the tmloadcf command, see the Oracle Tuxedo Command Reference in the Oracle Tuxedo online documentation.
