capture-schema(1M) Utility Commands capture-schema(1M)
NAME
capture-schema - stores the database metadata (schema) in a file for
use in mapping and execution
SYNOPSIS
capture-schema -username name -password password
[-dburl url] [-driver jdbc_driver_classname]
[-schemaname schemaname] [-table tablename]
-out filename]
DESCRIPTION
Stores the database metadata (schema) in a file.
Run capture-schema as the same database user that owns the table(s),
and use that same username with the -username option (and -schemaname,
if required).
When running capture-schema against an Oracle database, you should
grant the database user running the capture-schema command the ANALYZE
ANY TABLE privilege.
OPTIONS
-username
user name for authenticating access to a database.
-password
password for accessing the selected database.
-dburl
JDBC URL required by the driver for accessing a database.
-driver
JDBC driver classname in your CLASSPATH.
-schemaname
name of the user schema being captured. If not specified, the
default will capture metadata for all tables from all the schemas
accessible to this user.
Specifying this parameter is highly recommended. Without this
option, if more than one schema is accessible to this user, more
than one table with the same name may be captured, which will cause
problems when mapping CMP fields to tables.
The specified schema name must be uppercase.
-table
name of a table; multiple table names can be specified. If no table
is specified, all the tables in the database or named schema are
captured.
The specified table name or names are case sensitive. Be sure to
match the case of the previously created table names.
-out
name of the output file. This option is required. If the specified
output file does not contain the .dbschema suffix, it will be
appended to the filename.
EXAMPLES
Example 1, Using the capture-schema command
capture-schema -username cantiflas -password enigma
-dburl jdbc:oracle:thin:@sadbuttrue:1521:ora817
-driver oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
-schemaname CANTIFLAS -out cantiflas.dbschema
Where: sun-acc.xml is the name of the client configuration XML
file, myclientapp.jar is the client application .jar file, and
scott and sample are arguments to pass to the application. If
sun-acc.xml and myclientapp.jar are not in the current directory,
you must give the absolute path locations; otherwise the relative
paths are used. The relative path is relative to the directory
where the command is being executed.
