Problem

I want to back up the send and receive templates and so forth, to be able to recreate them if they're deleted. How to do this?

Resolution

These are all contained within CFTEXT, and therefore that command can be used to back them up. The basic syntax is:

cftutil cftext fout=OUTPUTFILE
(replace OUTPUTFILE with a path/filename of your choosing)

and the output file will then contain all of those elements plus a lot of others. In fact, when you generate a cft_support, one of the commands it issues is that, so a cft_support (which Axway Support will usually ask for when you open a case) can also be used to back up all the CFT objects.

The above command can also be put into a script and run using CFT's scheduler (CFTCRON), or any other scheduler you want, such as crontab.
