Renaming a Database

Renaming a Database
Under some circumstances you might need to rename a database For example, if you need to
create a new database with the same name, you can rename the original database. You can keep
the original database as an archive for searching.
c
Before beginning this procedure, be sure to make a backup of the database. See “Creating
and Restoring Database Backups” on page 29 for information on running a backup.
Temporarily change the Backup time field to “Once at” and enter or select from the list the
time in the future closest to the current time.
To rename a database:
1. In the Database section of the Interplay Administrator window, click the Manage Databases
icon.
The Manage Databases view opens.
2. Select the database and click the Deactivate Database button to ensure that the database is
not in use.
3. On the server or at the database location, use the Windows desktop to rename the database
folder, .pro file, and .nif directory, and all files within the _Database folder, that is, replace
the old <DatabaseName> with the new name for all files fitting the following mask:
<DatabaseName>\<DatabaseName>.pro
<DatabaseName>\<DatabaseName>.nif
<DatabaseName>\<DatabaseName>\_*.pro.jrn
<DatabaseName>\_Database\<DatabaseName>.*
<DatabaseName>\_Database\<DatabaseName>_*.jrn
Do not forget to rename the .jrn files correctly: make sure there are no typos in the database
name, and that they are followed by the underscore and the numeric ID.
4. In the Interplay Administrator, click the Manage Databases icon and activate the database
(see
“Activating a Deactivated Database” on page 65).
