7.3.6. Exporting infobase to file
Using the standalone server management utility (ibcmd), you can dump an infobase to a DT file. To do this, use the command:
ibcmd infobase dump --dbms=mssqlserver --database-server=dbServerName --database-user=dbUser --database-password=dbUserPassword --database-name=docs-db --data="d:\ss-data\dbName-data" 1cv8.dt
When you execute this command, make sure that the infobase to be dumped to a DT file has no connections. Due to this restriction, several server applications (both standalone and ordinary) cannot operate with the infobase to be dumped at the same time. Otherwise, it can lead to integrity violation of the infobase dump file to be created (DT file).
You also need to remember that infobase dumping is not used for infobase backup. To back up a database, use the respective tools (see Infobase backup).
