Maintaining and Monitoring Your Database : Dumping and Loading : Dumping database contents
Dumping database contents
Once you dump the database's definitions, you dump the contents of each database object. When you dump database contents, you can dump the following:
Table contents
Sequence values
User table contents
SQL View File contents
Note: For a complete description of dumping and loading SQL content, see SQL Utilities
The OpenEdge RDBMS provides two methods of dumping database contents: you can use the PROUTIL utility to dump the data in binary format, or you can use the Data Administration tool user interface to dump the data in text format. Dumping the data in binary format with PROUTIL is generally faster.
