The export operation copies the reference table data to the file system. Copy the files to the PowerCenter Integration Service host machine. The reference data file locations in the PowerCenter directory structure must correspond to the locations of the reference tables in the Model repository folder structure.

The following path describes a sample directory structure for the reference data objects in a PowerCenter installation:

<Informatica_installation_directory>\services\<Model_repository_project_name>\<Model_repository_project_folder_name>
