Application Databases

To deploy all or a portion of an application database, you must perform a dump-and-load operation. These are the situations that force you to deploy all or a portion of an application database from the development environment to the user environment:

A dump operation produces text files containing data definitions (.df) files and data (.d) files. Transfer these data definition and data files to the user environment to recreate the application database or to load updates into an existing application database. When you deploy a database, remember to deploy the source code for any trigger procedures associated with the application database.

For more information about database triggers, see the Progress Programming Handbook. For more information about dumping and loading databases, see the Progress Database Administration Guide and Reference.
