Prerequisites
First, you will need to set up one of the Perspectium DataSync Agents.
You should also stop running your DataSync Agent before making any Agent configuration changes.
Procedure
To match field lengths your DataSync Agent, follow these steps:
Access your agent.xml configuration file
Navigate to the directory where you saved your agent.xml file when installing your DataSync Agent.
Add the <match_field_lengths/> directive
Open your agent.xml file in a text editing application. Then, locate the <task> directive(s) within your <subscribe> directive, and nest the <match_field_lengths/> directive.
Save your agent.xml
Save the changes you've made to your agent.xml and close the file. Your agent.xml should look similar to the example shown below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" standalone="no"?>
