Re: tbload
Posted in 1998
Sorry if I wasn't clear.
I want to transfer data from server A to B. I used tbload, it failed but
dbexport succeeded. Knowing that I tbloaded the data from A to a third
server C also succeeded.
For all the cases, my dbspaces are large enough to hold the data of A.
My question is why I couldnt do tbload to server B while I did it for server
C??
TIA
Nien
