Copy Database to a Backup Location Using movedb (Linux)

The movedb utility (see movedb Command--Copy Data Locations to Another Machine on page 299) can be used to copy database locations to another machine, for disaster recovery purposes. Movedb is valid on Linux only.

Note: The locations must be the same on both machines.

For example, the following command copies the sales database from the host1 machine to the host2 machine. All database locations are copied. An SSH key file is specified so that password authentication will be required only once:

movedb -source host1 -dest host2 -dbname sales -key /home/actian/keyfilename
