Using the ttBulkCp utility
The ttBulkCp utility copies table data between TimesTen data stores
and ASCII files. The data files used by ttBulkCp can only contain rows
from a single table. They also do not store the table’s column or index
definitions. Therefore, when migrating from one TimesTen data store to
another with
ttBulkCp , you must first create the tables and indexes in
the new data store manually. Then use ttBulkCp to copy the rows from
the original data store to the new data store. For a description of the
ttBulkCp syntax and usage, see "Utilities" in Oracle TimesTen In-
Memory Database API Reference Guide .
Note: The release of ttBulkCp must match the release of the data store
you are copying from or to. In this example, use ttBulkCp Release 6.0
to save the tables to disk files and use ttIsql and ttBulkCp Release 7.0
to copy the disk files into the tables of the new data store.
To import data from a data store created with TimesTen6.0:
1. Find all the tables you want to copy into the new release of TimesTen.
2. Use the TimesTen utility ttBulkCp to copy the data in each table to a
disk file.
3. Define a data source name for the new data store.
4. Use the CREATE TABLE and CREATE INDEX commands with ttIsql
to recreate each table and index you are importing.
5. Use the TimesTen utility ttBulkCp to copy the contents of the disk
file(s) into the table(s) of the new data store. If, for example:
• Release 6.0 is installed in: /opt/ TimesTen6.0 /32 and release 7.0
is installed in /opt/TimesTen/tt70;
• Your DSN for release 6.0 is called source600 and your DSN for
release 7.0 is source_ tt70.
• You have a ttIsql script named create.sql that creates user tables
and indexes, or use the ttSchema utility to create the SQL statements
necessary for object creation; and
• You want to migrate the tables ABLE and BAKER from source600
to source_ tt70.
To copy the tables to disk files, you would execute the commands:
