AW: dbexport

Hello Raymond, Ampon uses SE, not OnLine! Hello Ampon! Pls try ps -ef | grep sqlexec to check out, if there are running sql-processes. I so, then kill -15 them and try dbexport again. Look out, if there is an sqlexecd=20 (Informix-NET) process, which is running in background, if so then kill it or stop it. Hope this helps. Bye=20 Andy M.

The best tool to check if there is any Informix user (not Unix user) is to use 'tbstat -u' or (onstat -u for Dynmaic Server). If it shows users other than 'informix', then find = out the application program that is still active and terminate them if possible (warn the users first, or do any necessary backup first). Good luck. Ampon Chumpia wrote: > Hello, > > I want to export an SE (5.06.UC1) database so that I can reconstruct the > database to be used by another version of SE (7.24.UC5).
