How to Configure the Binary Text Extractor

Configuration details for the BTE are saved in BinaryTextorConfig.xml. This is a CA DataMinder system definition file. To configure BinaryTextorConfig.xml, follow these steps:

  1. Export the default version of BinaryTextorConfig.xml from the CMS.
  2. Edit BinaryTextorConfig.xml to specify the file types that you want CA DataMinder to analyze.
  3. Install your customized version of BinaryTextorConfig.xml back onto the CMS.

    CA DataMinder then replicates your customized version of BinaryTextorConfig.xml automatically to each CA DataMinder policy engine and endpoint computer.

If you need to disable the BTE, you must replace the existing configuration file on the CMS with a 'zero file type' file configuration file.

These steps are described in the following sections.
