Configuring and Using Client Variables 227
Exporting the Client variable database
If your Client variable database is stored in the Windows system registry and you
need to move it to another machine, you can export the registry key that stores your
Client variables and take it to your new server. The system tegistry allows you to
export and import Registry entries.
To export your Client variable database from the registry in Windows:
1 Open the Registry editor.
2 Find and select the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Allaire\ColdFusion\
CurrentVersion\Clients
3 On the Registry menu, click Export Registry File.
4 Enter a name for the registry file.
After you create a registry file, you can copy it to a new machine and import it by
selecting Import Registry File on the Registry Editor Registry menu.
On UNIX systems, the registry entries are kept in /opt/coldfusion/registry/
cf.registry, a text file that you can copy and edit directly.
