Run Unloaddb
Run unloaddb against each database. The unloaddb command does not unload the database; it simply creates scripts.
For Ingres Star databases, unload the CDB in the same way as for a local database. For a DDB, use unloaddb/star.
For a regular DB or CDB, issue this command:
unloaddb dbname
For an Ingres Star DDB, issue this command:
unloaddb ddbname/star
If doing a clean-install upgrade to a different machine that has a newer architecture, binary data may not be compatible between the two machines. If this is the case, use the unloaddb –c option, which causes an ASCII instead of binary unload.
