You can use the Data Mover command-line interface to copy individual database objects, as well as to copy entire databases, including all of the objects they contain.
When you create a job definition, in addition to specifying basic source and target database information such as database names, users and passwords, you can specify exactly which objects to copy by creating or editing the XML file that defines the job.
When using ARC to copy data to a target system that is one or more major releases newer than the source system, the job log may contain the following ARC warning:
Warning ARC1257: A cross-release data restore requires that a Teradata SQL conversion script be run.Data Mover does not execute this post-data restore conversion script automatically. In most cases, it is not necessary to execute this script unless you are copying an entire database where the database contains an external stored procedure (XSP) or a user-defined function (UDF).
