RE: Import / Export

Frank dbexport my_database dbimport my_database Assumes both SE and you want to put the output in a directory on your server. The manual is the Migration Guide, available from www.informix.com (/answers I think). Typing dbexport gets the brief syntax.

As far as we know, one would use the dbexport/dbimport utilities, but unfortunately there is no documentation available in the Linux distribution and we have no access to the original documentation. Can anyone help, please? What are the correct statements to export / import a whole database with all tables, indices, views, etc.? Any help would be greatly appreciated. We're new to Informix and so any other information regarding it would also be very helpful. Thanks in advance. Frank
