deffolder XML file rules

The deffolder XML file contains the definition of a folder. The file is written in XML format and saved in a text file. The format in which this file must be written is described on the following pages.

When this file is invoked, Folder and/or SMART Folder definitions are imported to the Control-M/EM database. For instructions for creating input files, see XML file rules.

The following rules apply to the deffolder XML file:

• Only one SMART Folder can be included in a folder. However, multiple folders can be included in a single input file. Each of these folders can contain one SMART Folder.
• Multiple SMART Folders can be included in a file if the file only contains SMART Folders.
• More than one job can be specified in either type of folder.
• A single XML file can contain both Folders and SMART Folder parameters.
