Running the CATDMUDistributor
Batch Process

CATDMUDistributor copies DMU data (CATProduct, related cache data, etc.) given in a list from its current location to a distant location

  1. To copy DMU data from their current location to a distant location, run the command:

CATDMUDistributor inputdir cachedir docdir [-s char]

  1. To compute a list of files to copy, run the command:

CATDMUDistributor inputdir cachedir docdir -list file [-s char]
