dacopy - Data Area Copy

Copy from one data area to another.

dacopy [OPTIONS] sourceDataArea destinationDataArea

Use this utility to copy one data area to another within the same Landmark system. This applies only to copying application data areas although it does include copying some application-related dated that is stored in the environment data area (gen). The data areas you are copying from and to should be on the same release, or you run the risk of data import errors due to different application definitions.

If you want to copy from one data area to another where the data areas are on different Landmark systems, you should use daexport and daimport.

Program Option	Description
-e	Halt on database error.
-o	Overwrite duplicate records in the application.
-t	Number of files to copy at a time, normally 4.
-u	Update duplicate records in application.
-w	Skip the copying into application views.
-x size	Transaction size, normally 1000.
--deletedata	Delete application data and data area specific environment data in the destination data area before copy
--email	Replacement value for EmailAddress fields.
--noconfigclear	Do not fire configuration clear event. Using this option means the system will be out of sync. This is useful when a system is off-line and these utilities are being used. In that case, the system will be restarted anyway and the cache for configuration data will be automatically built upon access so processing the event is not needed.
--ignoredups	Ignore duplicate records in application.
--ignore	Comma-separated list of business name patterns to not copy.
@file	Use to specify the name of a file to read names from for --ignore.
--nowf	Do not copy work files.
