MYSQL_CONVERT_TAB(1) MariaDB Database System MYSQL_CONVERT_TAB(1)
mysql_convert_table_format - convert tables to use a given storage
engine
mysql_convert_table_format [options] db_name
mysql_convert_table_format converts the tables in a database to use a
particular storage engine (MyISAM by default).
mysql_convert_table_format is written in Perl and requires that the
DBI and DBD::mysql Perl modules be installed (see Section 2.15, “Perl
Installation Notes”).
Invoke mysql_convert_table_format like this:
shell> mysql_convert_table_format [options]db_name
The db_name argument indicates the database containing the tables to
be converted.
mysql_convert_table_format supports the options described in the
following list.
· --help
Display a help message and exit.
· --force
Continue even if errors occur.
· --host=host_name
Connect to the MariaDB server on the given host.
· --password=password
The password to use when connecting to the server. Note that the
password value is not optional for this option, unlike for other
MariaDB programs.
Specifying a password on the command line should be considered
insecure. You can use an option file to avoid giving the password
on the command line.
· --port=port_num
The TCP/IP port number to use for the connection.
· --socket=path
For connections to localhost, the Unix socket file to use.
· --type=engine_name
Specify the storage engine that the tables should be converted to
use. The default is MyISAM if this option is not given.
· --user=user_name
The MariaDB user name to use when connecting to the server.
· --verbose
Verbose mode. Print more information about what the program does.
· --version
Display version information and exit.
