If you have DWG data that you want to move to a feature source (page 2063),

see

Migrating DWG Data to GIS (page 628).

When you create a data store, you specify the minimum and maximum X

and Y spatial extents for new data store in the Create Data Store Dialog Box

(page 1747). This is especially important if you later use Bulk Copy (page 615) to

move data to that data store. You must make sure that the data you are moving

are inside the extents of the destination data store. MySQL and Oracle support

expanding the extents automatically if incoming data are beyond the scope

of the extents.
