Group Files

A configuration directory for a component can contain a number of configuration (.dxc) files. For complex configurations with many DSAs, you might need many configuration files, grouped in a convenient manner using group (.dxg) files.

Reasons for grouping files include the following:

• To share the same set of configuration files among many DSAs
• To enable a .dxi file to source a single configuration group (.dxg) file for one configuration component (such as limits).
• To manage ordering of the configuration files. This is especially important in schema where definitions in one file depend on definitions in another file.
