Running dbimport for two databases at the same time

Hello,

We're migrating to IDS 12.10.FC9 on RHEL 7.4 in a VMWare environment.

Our main database takes 2.75 hours to dbimport, and the second largest takes 1.5 hours. We have one large dataspace/chunk for all data.

I'd like to gain some time by running the dbimport for both databases at the same time. Is there any disadvantage to this? I guess the table data of the two databases will be interleaved? Would it be better to just import them separately?

Thanks,

Sean.

It’s less likely to be a hassle if your extent sizing is good. If you just use the defaults, it’s going to be terrible.
