Unloading a database file or running database

You can unload a stopped or running database in Sybase Central using the Unload Database Wizard.

Prerequisites

There are no prerequisites for this task.

Context and remarks

If the database you want to unload is already running, and you start the Unload Database Wizard, the SQL Anywhere 12 plug-in automatically stops the database before you can unload it.

Note

When you unload only tables, the user IDs that own the tables are not unloaded. You must create the user IDs that own the tables in the new database before reloading the tables.
