MARIADB-CO...BLE-FORMAT(1)  MariaDB Database System MARIADB-CO...BLE-FORMAT(1)

NAME
       mariadb-convert-table-format - convert tables to	use a given storage
       engine (mariadb-convert-table-format is now a symlink to	mariadb-
       convert-table-format)

SYNOPSIS

       mariadb-convert-table-format [options] db_name

DESCRIPTION
       mariadb_convert_table_format converts the tables	in a database to use a
       particular storage engine (MyISAM by default).  mariadb-convert-table-
       format is written in Perl and requires that the DBI and DBD::MariaDB
       Perl modules be installed (see Section 2.15, "Perl Installation
       Notes").

       Invoke mariadb-convert-table-format like	this:

	   shell> mariadb-convert-table-format [options]db_name

       The db_name argument indicates the database containing the tables to be
       converted.

       mariadb-convert-table-format supports the options described in the
       following list.

          --help

	   Display a help message and exit.

          --force

	   Continue even if errors occur.

          --host=host_name

	   Connect to the MariaDB server on the	given host.

          --password=password

	   The password	to use when connecting to the server. Note that	the
	   password value is not optional for this option, unlike for other
	   MariaDB programs.

	   Specifying a	password on the	command	line should be considered
	   insecure. You can use an option file	to avoid giving	the password
	   on the command line.

          --port=port_num

	   The TCP/IP port number to use for the connection.

          --socket=path

	   For connections to localhost, the Unix socket file to use.

          --type=engine_name

	   Specify the storage engine that the tables should be	converted to
	   use.	The default is MyISAM if this option is	not given.

          --user=user_name

	   The MariaDB user name to use	when connecting	to the server.

          --verbose

	   Verbose mode. Print more information	about what the program does.

          --version

	   Display version information and exit.
