The <span class="command"><strong>db_upgrade</strong></span> utility upgrades the Berkeley DB version of one or more
|
|||
|
files and the databases they contain to the current release version.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
The options are as follows:
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<div class="itemizedlist">
|
|||
|
<ul type="disc">
|
|||
|
<li>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
<span class="bold"><strong>-h</strong></span>
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
Specify a home directory for the database environment; by default, the
|
|||
|
current working directory is used.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
</li>
|
|||
|
<li>
|
|||
|
<p>

<span class="bold"><strong>-N</strong></span>
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
Do not acquire shared region mutexes while running. Other problems,
|
|||
|
such as potentially fatal errors in Berkeley DB, will be ignored as
|
|||
|
well. This option is intended only for debugging errors, and should
|
|||
|
not be used under any other circumstances.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
</li>
|
|||
|
<li>
|

|
<p>

<span class="bold"><strong>-P</strong></span>

</p>

<p>
|

Specify an environment password. Although Berkeley DB utilities
|
|||
|
overwrite password strings as soon as possible, be aware there may be
|
|||
|
a window of vulnerability on systems where unprivileged users can see
|
|||
|
command-line arguments or where utilities are not able to overwrite
|
|||
|
the memory containing the command-line arguments.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||

|||

<p>
|

|
This flag is only meaningful when upgrading databases from releases
|
|||
|
before the Berkeley DB 3.1 release.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
As part of the upgrade from the Berkeley DB 3.0 release to the 3.1
|
|||
|
release, the on-disk format of duplicate data items changed. To
|
|||
|
correctly upgrade the format requires that applications specify
|
|||
|
whether duplicate data items in the database are sorted or not.
|
|||
|
Specifying the <span class="bold"><strong>-s</strong></span> flag means that the
|
|||
|
duplicates are sorted; otherwise, they are assumed to be unsorted.
|
|||
|
Incorrectly specifying the value of this flag may lead to database
|
|||
|
corruption.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
Because the <span class="command"><strong>db_upgrade</strong></span> utility upgrades a physical file (including all
|
|||
|
the databases it contains), it is not possible to use <span class="command"><strong>db_upgrade</strong></span> to
|
|||
|
upgrade files where some of the databases it includes have sorted
|
|||
|
duplicate data items, and some of the databases it includes have
|
|||
|
unsorted duplicate data items. If the file does not have more than a
|
|||
|
single database, if the databases do not support duplicate data items,
|
|||
|
or if all the databases that support duplicate data items support the
|
|||
|
same style of duplicates (either sorted or unsorted), <span class="command"><strong>db_upgrade</strong></span> will
|
|||
|
work correctly as long as the <span class="bold"><strong>-s</strong></span> flag
|
|||
|
is correctly specified. Otherwise, the file cannot be upgraded using
|
|||
|
<span class="command"><strong>db_upgrade</strong></span>, and must be upgraded manually using the
|
|||
|
<a class="xref" href="db_dump.html" title="db_dump">db_dump</a> and
|
|||
|
<a class="xref" href="db_load.html" title="db_load">db_load</a> utilities.

<span class="bold"><strong>It is important to realize that Berkeley DB
|
|||
|
database upgrades are done in place, and so are potentially
|
|||
|
destructive.</strong></span> This means that if the system crashes during
|
|||
|
the upgrade procedure, or if the upgrade procedure runs out of disk
|
|||
|
space, the databases may be left in an inconsistent and unrecoverable
|
|||
|
state. See <a href="../../programmer_reference/am_upgrade.html" class="olink">Upgrading databases</a> for more information.

The <span class="command"><strong>db_upgrade</strong></span> utility may be used with a Berkeley DB environment (as
|
|||
|
described for the <span class="bold"><strong>-h</strong></span> option, the
|
|||
|
environment variable <span class="bold"><strong>DB_HOME</strong></span>, or
|
|||
|
because the utility was run in a directory containing a Berkeley DB
|
|||
|
environment). In order to avoid environment corruption when using a
|
|||
|
Berkeley DB environment, <span class="command"><strong>db_upgrade</strong></span> should always be given the chance
|
|||
|
to detach from the environment and exit gracefully. To cause
|
|||
|
<span class="command"><strong>db_upgrade</strong></span> to release all environment resources and exit cleanly, send
|
|||
|
it an interrupt signal (SIGINT).
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
The <span class="command"><strong>db_upgrade</strong></span> utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error
|
|||

occurs.
