Re: Q: Dbexport to pipe

1. You must create named pipe, e.g. mknod dbpipe p 2. Run application that read from pipe in asynchronous mode, e.g. compress<dbpipe>dbexport.Z & 3. Run dbexport with -t option (as tape device), you must set the tape size option (-s) and the block size option (-b) in kilobites, e.g. dbexport database -t dbpipe -b 20 -s 4000000 ---------- sanjeev sagar wrote: > > Here it goes > > How can i do dbexport to named pipe? > > I am using Informix DSA 7.23 on sun Solaris 3.0. > > Thanks in advance. > > Sanjeev >
