Create Unload Directory
You must create a directory to hold scripts, but no data. Make the directory writable by anyone. The disk space needed is a maximum of 1 MB per directory.
To create a directory, issue the following commands for each database, including the Ingres Star databases:
UNIX:
mkdir
/someplace/dbname
chmod 777
/someplace/dbname 
Windows:
mkdir
d:\someplace\dbname
