Bergman Precedence: bulk Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT I ran into a problem yesterday afternoon. I had exported a production database, via a full database export, and ftp'd it to another machine to import it there and make that the new production machine. It was a long import (about 8 hours) and about 2/3 through it, my network connection was dropped. I was running it in a ssh shell. When the connection disappeared, the import died. Since I had to get the job done by morning, I chose to drop the database, rebuild it, then re-import. That worked. What I am wondering is: Is there a way to resume an import, once it has been interrupted? I have been looking in metalink and on the net and haven't found anything that says how to do it. I tried technet, but it was way too slow. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
