DATACOPY(FreeTDS)	   FreeTDS Reference Manual	     DATACOPY(FreeTDS)

NAME
     datacopy — move table data between two servers

SYNOPSIS
     datacopy [-vdE] {-t | -a | -c owner} [-b batchsize] [-p packetsize]
	      [-S server/username/password/database/table_or_view]
	      [-D server/username/password/database/table] [-T textsize]

DESCRIPTION
     datacopy is a utility distributed with FreeTDS.  datacopy will move table
     data from one server to another without the need for intermediate files.
     datacopy is much faster and more efficient than is freebcp out/in.

     datacopy makes use of the db-lib bcp API built into FreeTDS. This API is
     also available to application developers.

     datacopy can be used to migrate data between Sybase ASE and SQL Server or
     vice versa.

OPTIONS
     -t	     Truncate target table before loading data.

     -a	     Append data to target table.

     -c owner
	     Create the target table with the same schema as the source table.
	     datacopy will submit a ‘CREATE TABLE’ command on the target
	     server using the specified owner in the command, e.g.  ‘CREATE
	     TABLE owner.table (...).’

     -b batchsize
	     The number of rows per batch of data copied.  Each batch of data
	     is effectively 'committed' to the database. The default is 1000.

     -p packetsize
	     The number of bytes, per network packet, sent to and from the
	     servers. Increased packet size can enhance performance.

     -T textsize
	     Specify size of TEXT/IMAGE column from network.

     -v	     Produce verbose output, including diagnostic timings.

     -d	     Produce freetds TDSDUMP output. (Serious debug only!)

     -S server/username/password/database/table_or_view
	     The connection information for the source server and the loca‐
	     tion/name of the table (or view) to be copied.  If not specified,
	     datacopy prompts the user for the information.

     -D server/username/password/database/table
	     The connection information for the destination server and the
	     location/name of the target table.	 If not specified, datacopy
	     prompts the user for the information.

     -E	     Keep identity values.
