Re: Transfering redbrick database from UNIX to Win

My first question is are you staying on the same version of Red Brick? v6.2 --> v6.2 or are you also upgrading versions? This may impact how you transfer the data. Need more information before I give my recommendation. If you need temporary support for this process please contact me.
