Informix dbexport 1

[bjverzal]

I need to dbexport an Informix database. I have what is called "The Informix Handbook" as well as several pdf's, but none of them show any real useful as to what switches and command line options I should use.

Regards, Bill.

Steps to perform dbexport & dbimport for testing:
1. Inform your database users to logout the database & tell them the blackout period
2. dbexport <database> -o /import
3. Communicate to users that the blackout period is over
4. dbimport <database> -i /import -d <dbspace>
5. Check & test the database

It worked fine. I stuffed the necessary commands into a ksh script.

Much thanks! Bill.
