DupFinder

is a search client that detects duplicate IDT records.

DupFinder

reads the IDT and treats each record as a search record. Output is written to an external flat file.

The duplicate finding process must use a suitably defined Multi-Search Definition (see

DESIGN GUIDE

) and can process all, or a subset of the IDT records. Limiting the number of records is accomplished by specifying (in the definition) a maximum number of records to process, or by specifying a starting

Record-Id

.

The output by default includes the search record and its duplicates. An option can be specified to limit the output to the search records (which found duplicates) only, or a set of duplicates with the search record removed.
