DUP Command
Specifying a larger-than-normal DSLACK value when a file is initially loaded and
many more inserts are expected can improve performance by reducing the number
of block splits required when inserts occur.
For a file expected to have little write activity, you can save disk space by specifying
a smaller-than-normal DSLACK value.
DUP Command
DUP is an SQLCI utility command that copies tables (optionally with the associated
views and indexes), views, collations, SQL programs in Guardian files, and Enscribe
files. DUP cannot copy a catalog table.
DUP is useful for moving tables to different nodes or volumes and for duplicating tables
for testing.
