dnload2 - download database tables to server
dnload2 <long arguments>
<files>
This program downloads database tables to
dbman. There
is normally one file for each table to download. The program can handle
files with mixed tuples of the newer type in which each line states which
table it is from.
This program differs from dnload in that it takes it’s
files in a .lst text format instead of the .db binary format.
Generally certain
tables must precede other tables for downloading to succeed.
Argument
processing is done using Unix long argument syntax
- --dbman_host <hn>
The host where dbman(8)
is running.
If this argument is not present the
default is "localhost". The DBMAN_HOST environment variable is used if present.
- --live <mode>
With this option passed the database updates are passed along. Otherwise
it runs in a checking mode to verify that the data is sane before sending
it along. There are two modes of operation, add or mod which are fairly
self explanitory.
- --show_all_cnt
When record count printing is enabled by --verbose >= 1 then normally counters
with zero values aren’t printed. This causes all counter values to be printed.
- --verbose=<n>
Normally the program does it’s work silently. This causes it to print several
messages on startup.
The argument is optional, if not given it defaults
to 1.
- --help
print the help info and exit.
- files
Multiple arguments specifying the files containing the AccelNET database
files.
- DBMAN_HOST
The host where dbman is running. Use this or use the --dbman_host option. if
both are present --dbman_host option overrides DBMAN_HOST
Usually the
dbload script performs the function of calling this program.
