High-Level Instructions

  1. Launch SID-Refresh™.
  2. SID-Refresh™ will check the environment variables and automatically search for R3trans in the default directory. If R3trans is not in the default directory, you must specify the path where it is saved.
  3. SID-Refresh™ will also define a default directory for the export/import. We recommend using a different export directory other than the default.
  4. Select the number of R3trans processes to use for the export/import. By default, the slider is positioned at 1. The slider in the tool allows you to select the number of concurrent R3trans tasks that you want to run. A maximum of 8 is allowed since higher than 8 does not yield to shorter runtime.

  5. Select the operation (Export Tables, Import Tables, or Clean Tables) to perform.
  6. Select the components that you want to export/import/clean. Alternatively, you have the option to load a previously saved configuration from the previous run.
  7. Click the Start button to start the export/import/cleanup process.


Info
titleNote
