Hi All,

Yes a table/index create has a hard coded path in it...

Heres a quick auditdb -a
Fcreate : Transaction Id 00004e3250108720 File /dbdata1/TE/ingres/data/default/bowtest/aaaaabaa.t00

There are also Frenames....

So it appears that I need to edit the dumps/journals as well.

Rather than decode the blasted journals with od does anyone know where I can find the journal file descriptions?

Has anyone done this before?

As far as I know, the journals are the same as the transaction log.
There might be a header of some kind, I'm not sure. The log record
definitions are in back/dmf/hdr/dm0l.h. The low level journal
file readers are in cl/clf/jf_unix_win/jf.c and in back/dmf/dmp/dm0j.c
(the JF routines are the CL equivalent of read() and write(), and
the dm0j routines give you read-a-record.)
