Populating the Directives File
When sqldbcopy is run, one or more tables might fail to process. Rather than manually determining the tables that have not completed processing, you can run the populatedirectives utility before rerunning sqldbcopy. The populatedirectives utility uses the log file and the old directives file to populate a new directives file that contains the tables that must complete processing. The new directives file can then be referenced when you rerun sqldbcopy.
To populate the directives file
At a command prompt, type:
populatedirectives dataarea logFile oldDirectivesFile
Consider the following options:
| Program Option | Description |
|---|---|
dataarea |
Data area to process |
logFile |
Log file that resulted from previously running sqldbcopy |
oldDirectivesFile |
Directives file previously used by sqldbcopy |
