Set a Default Repository

The repository that is set as the default is used as the default source or target repository when an extract specification, selection criteria, or application relationship are created. When File-AID/EX is first run, the local repository is set as the default repository.

Warning

Important

For production environments, we recommend that users set up a shared repository in an industry-standard RDMS rather than using the local repository created when File-AID/EX is installed. The local repository is not managed or backed up, and is meant only to provide a starting point for small testing scenarios, not production environments.

To change the default repository

  1. From the File-AID/EX perspective's Tools view, select the Administration section, then select Repository Management. The Repository Management Utility launches.
  2. Select the Repositories tab.
  3. In the Shared Repositories box, select the repository to be used as the default repository.
  4. Click Set as Default. A message indicates that the repository has been set as the default repository.
  5. Close the Repository Management Utility.

The default repository will appear in the Source Repository and Target Repository list in ConverterPro and ComparePro.
