To use encryption do I need to set the c-tree config variable before I run ISMIGRATE?

Question:
In order to encrypt files, do I need to have the variable set in the config file before migration, or would I need to redo the migration process?

Answer:
To encrypt your data files when converting to c-treeRTG using ISMIGRATE, you have two options:

  1. If you use the ISMIGRATE wizard, you can check the "Encrypt" checkbox during the setup of c-treeRTG.
  2. If you launch ISMIGRATE in console mode with parameters, you can set
       iscobol.ismigrate_make_encrypt=true
    
    in the configuration file passed on the command line.
You have to set these configuration variables before running ISMIGRATE.
If you set them after running ISMIGRATE, you'll have to redo the migration.
