Back Up theFME Flow配置Files

Before proceeding with the primary task of backing up yourFME Flowconfiguration, we recommend manually backing up theFME流配置文件to a location outside of yourFME Flowinstallation directory, in case you need to refer to them later. These files contain configurations for theFME FlowDatabase and miscellaneous settings for the Transformation and Repository Managers. These configurations are not included in the primary backup procedure. To restore any changes that were made in these files, you must be able to refer to them when the upgrade is complete, so that you can make the corresponding changes in the replacement file.

Warning  "> Warning配置files from a backed-upFME Floware for reference only. Do not copy them to the corresponding directory of a restoredFME Flow.
