How to split up my database 8.3b

Posted by LegacyUser on 13-Aug-2001 03:37

Hi,

My database reaches 1.9 Giga and I have to split up in 6 or more databases.

Could you give me the command line I have to type?

Thanks

Dear Author,

Hi

As there is no data splitting supported at the product level so the solution is just a work around. You have to manually splitt the data based on the dates and than You have to change your application program accordingly. In this way you can perform splitting. i.e if the date is less than the split date than search in Primary database else search in the splitted database

I hope it will serve your purpose.

Thanks

Hello,

If you are worried about the unix 2 gig limit then you do not need to have

your app recoded, you need to rebuild your database as a multi volume database.

This allows you to specify many files for the storage of data rather than just

the one. This will overcoem teh 2 gig file limit.

Hope this helps.
