Database-Logging Mode

The logging mode is not retained in the schema file. You can specify any of the following options when you use dbimport to import a database:

• ANSI-compliant database with unbuffered logging
• Unbuffered logging
• Buffered logging

For more information, see Create Options.

The -l options are equivalent to the logging clauses of the CREATE DATABASE statement, as follows:

• The -l option is equivalent to the WITH LOG clause.
• The -l buffered option is equivalent to the WITH BUFFERED LOG.

For more information about the CREATE DATABASE statement, see the IBM Informix: Guide to SQL Syntax.
