How the Schema Export Tool Works

When it is invoked, the Schema Export Tool accepts the tibemsd.conf or tibemsd.json file and reviews the database store parameters, then parses the stores configured, either in the stores.conf file or in the JSON configuration file. Depending on the options specified when it was invoked, the Schema Export Tool will create, drop, or update the database tables for the stores of type dbstore that are configured.

The tool can perform the selected actions on all database stores, or only on specific stores. The Schema Export Tool can also print the database tables it creates to the console, or export them either to the database or to a specified file.
