Dumping auto-connect records
Dumping auto-connect records is similar to dumping table and sequence definitions.
To dump auto-connect records:
1. Access the appropriate Data tool (the Data Administration tool if you are using a graphical interface or the Data Dictionary if you are using a character interface).
2. Choose Admin > Dump Data and Definitions > Auto-connect Records Only. The data tool prompts you for the output file where you want to write the auto-connect records. The default filename is _auto.df.
3. Specify a new filename or accept the default. After dumping the auto-connect records, the Data tool displays a status message and prompts you to continue.
4. Choose OK to return to the Data Administration or Data Dictionary main window.
