Recently upgraded Spectrum to 10.4.1 and want to convert the DDMDB database from MyISAM to the newer InnoDB engine type.
convert_saved_myisam_to_innodb.pl
However, as the requirements state, there should be approximately 3x the amount of disk space overhear of the largest table, to allow buffer room for the conversion. On this server there is not enough disk space. Can we run the conversion on another server and import the converted back into the original 10.4.1 machine?
Release : 10.4.1
Component : Spectrum Core / SpectroSERVER
