backupDB

backupDB(backupDir, dbPath, [keyPath])

backupDir is a string indicating the directory to save the backup.

dbPath is a string indicating the database path.

keyPath (optional, Linux only) is a STRING scalar that specifies the path to the TDE key file used for backup encryption. If left empty, no encryption will be applied.

Back up the specific database to the specified directory.

The function is equivalent to backup(backupDir, dbPath, force=false, sparallel=true, snapshot=true).

dbName = "dfs://compoDB2"
n=1000
ID=rand("a"+string(1..10), n)
dates=2017.08.07..2017.08.11
date=rand(dates, n)
x=rand(10, n)
t=table(ID, date, x)
db1 = database(, VALUE, 2017.08.07..2017.08.11)
db2 = database(, HASH,[INT, 20])
if(existsDatabase(dbName)){
  dropDatabase(dbName)
}
db = database(dbName, COMPO,[ db1,db2])

//create 2 tables
pt1 = db.createPartitionedTable(t, `pt1, `date`x).append!(t)
pt2 = db.createPartitionedTable(t, `pt2, `date`x).append!(t)
