+I have tried to tbunload a database from one server and tbload it to another
+server. The process failed due to insufficient space. But when I do dbexport
+and import it works.
+
+The only different between the two servers are phy log size, one is 2000K
+and the other is 3000K, is that the problem or what????
tbunload takes a raw dump of your tblspace, including pages allocated to the tblspace
but not currently containing any data. dbimport will create the table with default
extent sizes (unless dbexport -ss was used - not sure if that option was even present
in 5.0), so you should only need as much disk space as required by the data being
inserted + indexes.
