NAME

6       astdb2sqlite3 - convert astdb to SQLite 3
7

SYNOPSIS

9       astdb2sqlite3 path/to/astdb
10
11

DESCRIPTION

13       Up until version version 11, Asterisk used an old version of the Berke‐
14       ley DB 1.86 (bdb) to store its internal persistent database. In version
15       11  it  switched  to using a SQLite 3 database. This program is used to
16       convert an existing bdb astdb file to astdb.sqlite3.
17
18       Normally the conversion is done by Asterisk itself which will run  this
19       program. But you may need to run it on your own.

21

OPTIONS

23       There  is a single (and required) parameter: the path the the bdb file.
24       The output file name will be the  same  as  the  input,  with  .sqlite3
25       appended.

EXAMPLES

29       Asterisk will typically run the following to upgrade the database:
30
31         astdb2sqlite3 /var/lib/asterisk/astdb
32
33       which will create /var/lib/asterisk/astdb.sqlite3.
