Configuration File Overview

In the Fast Clone Console, you can create and manage cloning configuration files. Fast Clone uses the configuration files to unload source data, generate load scripts, enable integration with Informatica Data Replication, and configure reporting and SNMP traps for monitoring.

A configuration file is a text file. Informatica recommends that you use the Fast Clone Console to create and manage configuration files to reduce the risk of error. Alternatively, you can create and edit configuration files in a text editor.

By default, the Fast Clone Console saves a configuration file as unload.ini to the FastClone_installation directory in a local file system. You can optionally save the configuration file under another name.

In the Fast Clone Console, you can open a configuration file to edit unload settings or use it to run a data unload job. If you open the configuration file to run data unload job, the Fast Clone Console overrides the unload.ini file in the FastClone_installation directory if it already exists.

If you use the Fast Clone Server to run data unload jobs on a remote system, you can enable remote configuration management in the Fast Clone Console. You can then open and save the configuration files on the remote system from the Fast Clone Console using an FTP server.

A configuration file is not required for data cloning if you run Fast Clone from the command line. However, you must then manually specify all of the parameters at the command line for the Fast Clone executable.
