Full Discussion: Compress dbexport on the fly
Operating Systems HP-UX Compress dbexport on the fly Post 302764475 by DGPickett on Thursday 31st of January 2013 02:10:11 PM

Can the -t be used to redirect it to write to stdout? Then you can compress or ssh over to another host to lay down the file. I wonder if the -t output is a tar file or something like that. This page says "-s -": The dbexport and dbimport Programs Try pointing it to a named pipe from '/sbin/mknod name p'. This guy seems to have it working: http://newsgroups.derkeiler.com/Arch.../msg00193.html

The utility ontape is more versatile and fast, but not as platform independent: http://informix-zone.com/idswiki/dok...bexport_ontape

This guy talks about onbar and onunload: http://oreilly.com/catalog/unixbr/chapter/ch14.html

This guy uses unload and a named pipe: http://www.iiug.org/forums/ids/index...ames/read/1026

If you have the schema file, you can select * from each table and save the data that way for future insert/import.

There may be some JDBC tools that will help do this, like kettle and xigole jisql.
