Figure 7-4. Output Selection Level of ibconf
In the output selection level, you can select the configuration files that should be
updated by ibconf. To create or update a data file, respond yes to copy
changes to the data file. The data file confil.cf (the default name) is then
created or opened and the new configuration is stored into it.
If you select yes to copy changes to the memory resident driver, ibconf
updates the driver that is currently resident in memory. If you select yes to
copy changes to drivers on disk, ibconf updates the driver file on disk.
