| Hello All, We are moving from (IDS 10 FC3R1) HP-UX 11i to an AIX partition on the iSeries. I know i can use HPL to unload because it is a UNIX environment but will i be able to use HPL to load into the new database and environment that is not HP-UX - ? Thanks, Tom |

| The noconversion unloads in a binary internal format that is platform dependent. Also check out Point In Time Table Restore. If you are moving from IDS 10 to IDS 10 you can use the Point in Time Table Restore to restore a complete database from one platform to another!! Since you will be taking a level 0 archive anyway why use onbar and ism and archive to disk. They you can restore from that image rather than extracting all the data from the database again! Something to consider. |
