						db_dump [-klNpRrV] [-d ahr]
						[-f output] [-h home] [-s database] file
						db_dump185 [-p] [-f output] file
					

Description

The db_dump utility reads the database file file and writes it to the standard output using a portable flat-text format understood by the db_load utility. The argument file must be a file produced using the Berkeley DB library functions.

The db_dump185 utility is similar to the db_dump utility, except that it reads databases in the format used by Berkeley DB versions 1.85 and 1.86.

The options are as follows:

• -d Dump the specified database in a format helpful for debugging the Berkeley DB library routines.

• a Display all information.

• h Display only page headers.

• r Do not display the free-list or pages on the free list. ...
