Parameter Name

Description

Value

Default

Unique to ArchiveManager

–export <filename>

Enter the –export switch, followed by the file to which the exported objects will be written. This parameter is required to export.

String

No

–directive <filename>

Enter the –directive switch, followed by the file containing the directives for which objects to export. This parameter is required to export. The export directives files cannot be created by using the –generate command; it must be created by hand. See the Export Directives File section for more information.

String

No

–auto_unique

By default, ArchiveManager does not export unique keys. If this is required, for example, if the ArchiveManager export will be sent to a system that only uses Dataex, use the –auto_unique parameter to include the unique keys with the export.

Boolean

No

Yes

–compact

Writes out a smaller output file. This file can be a quarter of the size of a normal output file, but it is not easily readable.

Boolean

No

Yes

–no_expdef

By default, ArchiveManager exports all fields, even if the fields do not contain data. To only export fields with data, use the –no_expdef parameter.

Boolean

No

–objid

Outputs the object ids into the export file, and allows the objid to be used as a unique key.

Warning: We do not recommend using this parameter, but Clarify supplied .arc files rely on it.

Boolean
