This arguments file contains statements that specify an existing folder, SMART Folders and Sub Folders. The specified folders are exported to an output file.

Output files created with the exportdeffolder utility can be used as import files with the deffolder utility.

For example, you can export job processing definitions to an output file using exportdeffolder, make modifications to the definitions and save the file, and use the same file as the input file when running deffolder to import the modified folder definitions into Control-M/EM database.
