Re: dbimport and extents

I wasn't aware that dbimport did this. I usually use the -ss option on the dbexport and then if the extent sizes need adjusting edit the dbname.sql file in the export directory before running the import. There are various utilities available from the IIUG to help you calculate the extent sizes to use. -- --------------------------------------- Tony Flaherty aef@mfs.misys.co.uk Analyst Programmer Misys Financial Systems All statements and opinions are my own, Misys don't pay me enough to have opinions on their behalf .
