When this file is invoked, folder definitions are exported from the Control-M/EM database. For instructions for creating arguments files, see XML file rules.

The following rules apply to the exportdeffolder arguments file:

• More than one job can be specified in an exportdeffolder file.
• The arguments file is case-sensitive.
• All parameter values (such as strings or digits) must be enclosed in quotation marks (for example, JOBNAME="Job1").
• More than one PARAM parameter can be used in a TERM statement.
• The relationship between PARAM parameters in a TERM statement is AND. The relationship between TERM statements is OR.

The exportdeffolder arguments file is checked and processed. If there are any errors in the file, a message is displayed specifying the lines with errors.

The exported folder definitions are saved to an output file, the name and location of which is specified in the outFileName parameter.
