Hi all, does anyone know a trick/workaround to change the locale of a database from en_US.819 to de_DE.819 without the dbexport/dbimport combo. If not: I would use dbexport/dbmport but the problem is the tapesize restriction of 2 GB. We're using 9.30UC6 under AIX 4.3.3 and the database size is about 150 GB. I have a DLT 100GB tape drive and would use it - but changing a tape 75 times because of the 2 GB border - oh my god ! Any hints how to do this job as easy as possible. Thanks in advance.

Hi, Did you change TAPESIZE on your onconfig file? That could be the restriction! REGARDS
