About the WebFOCUS Hyperstage Database Files

Hyperstage tables are located in the data subdirectory in your Hyperstage installation directory. This is the same directory structure used for standard MySQL databases and tables. For more information, see Installation Layouts in the MySQL 5.x Reference Manual. Within the data subdirectory, Hyperstage databases are stored in separate subdirectories. Within each database subdirectory, data files for each Hyperstage table are stored in separate subdirectories.

Important: Do not manually copy a data table from one database to another by copying the database files. Internal table numbering errors and Knowledge Grid inconsistencies may occur. To copy a table, use import and export commands (see Importing and Exporting Data in WebFOCUS Hyperstage) or backup the entire database directory (see WebFOCUS Hyperstage Backup and Recovery).

The Hyperstage server uses additional directories to store temporary data, and optimization information, such as Knowledge Nodes. The following shows the data directory, containing the Hyperstage databases:

[root@ib03 data]# pwd
/usr/local/ibi/hyperstage/data
[root@ib03 data]# ls
  
BH_RSI_Repository
Hyperstage.log
Hyperstage.seq
ib03.corp.hyperstage.com.err
