Description
See also sqlf write-data-dtd-to-le on page 410.
Specify one of these pairs of options to connect to a data source with this command:
Use both -client-bind-address and -client-port to connect to a SQLFire cluster as a thin client
and perform the command.
Use both mcast-port and -mcast-address, or use the -locators property to connect to a SQLFire
cluster as a peer client and perform the command.
Use both -url and -driver-class to connect to a datasource using a JDBC URL and driver. You can
use this option to connect to a data source other than SQLFire.
Examples
Note: See also Export, Alter, and Import a Database Schema Using SQLF on page 100 for a full example
of migrating a third-party database to vFabric SQLFire.
This command connects to a SQLFire network server running on localhost:1527, and writes the table data to a
le named data.xml:
sqlf write-data-to-xml -file=data.xml
This command connects to a SQLFire network server running on myserver:1234, and writes the table data to a
le named data.xml:
sqlf write-data-to-xml -file=data.xml -client-bind-address=myserver
-client-port=1234
This command connects as a peer client to a SQLFire system running on multicast port 1234, and writes the
table data to a le named data.xml:
sqlf write-data-to-xml -file=data.xml -mcast-port=1234
-extra-conn-props=host-data=false
This command uses MySQL Connector/J to connect to a MySQL server running on the "myserver" host, and
writes table data from the "test" database schema to a le name data.xml:
sqlf write-data-to-xml -file=data.xml
-url=jdbc:mysql://myserver/test -driver-class=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
sqlf write-schema-to-db
Creates a schema in a database by using the contents of a one or more schema XML les (see sqlf
write-schema-to-xml). This command is generally used with a SQLFire cluster to export the schema, but it can
also be used with other JDBC datasources.
