Incremental transfer out

Transferring data out of a table

Ensure that this table is enabled with incremental data transfer. To check, follow the first step in the instructions for enabling the incremental data transfer utility.
Open the table’s context menu and select Data Transfer | Incremental | Out
Specify the destination file location, or accept the default location which is the directory from which the server was last started.

If incremental data transfer is enabled, only data that has been modified since the last transfer will be moved to the destination directory. If incremental data transfer is disabled, the entire table is transfered.

Click Next.
Specify the destination data formats:
- ASE – rows are written using Adaptive Server’s internal row format
- BCP – rows are writtin using BCP format.
- IQ – rows are written using Sybase IQ internal row format.
- CSV – rows are written in plain text using column and row separators. If you choose CSV, specify the characters for separators in the next page of the wizard.
Indicate the column order and encryption instructions.
- ID – order by column ID.
- Name – order by column name, using current character set and sort order.
- UTF8 – order by column name, translating column name to UTF8 before sorting.
- Offset – order by column offset within the data row.
- Encryption –
  - Yes – transmit columns encrypted, exactly as they appear in the data row.
  - No – decrypt columns between transmittal.
Specify the tracking and sequencing ID. Either select an optional identifier to track this transfer, resend previously transferred data or both. Select the appropriate option, then enter or select the tracking ID, sequence ID or whole table.

Adaptive Server assigns a Sequence ID to every transfer from a table. You can assign your own tracking number system using the Tracking ID dropdown menu. Adaptive Server keeps track of your Tracking ID but does not use it internally in the server.
View the summary then click Finish. A status screen informs you when the transfer is complete. Click Done to close the window.

In the wizard that walks you through incrementally transferring data in or out of a table, you can preview the transfer configuration , or schedule the task with a name and description by clicking Preview or Schedule.
