You can change the default method of exporting files to an uncompressed format. However, the resulting files could be significantly larger and take longer to compile. For more information, see option Subcommand option.Running the batch file
To save monitoring data in files, launch the Export Tool by running the batch file. From a system running UNIX, enter the name of the batch file at the command prompt, and then press the <Enter> key.
From a system running Windows, double-click the batch file to run it.
c:\WINDOWS> cd c:\export c:\export> runWin.bat
Dots (...) appear on the screen until the system finishes exporting data. If an internal error occurs, an exclamation mark (!) appears; and then the Export Tool restarts automatically.

By default, the system compresses monitoring data files into a ZIP-format archive file. When you want to view the monitoring data, you can decompress and extract the CSV files from the ZIP archive. If the operating system on your computer does not include a way to extract files from a ZIP archive, you need to obtain software to view the data.
