SYNOPSIS
9       mysql_fix_extensions data_dir
10

DESCRIPTION
12       mysql_fix_extensions converts the extensions for MyISAM (or ISAM) table
13       files to lowercase. It looks for files with an extension that that
14       matches any lettercase variant of .frm, .myd, .myi, .isd, and .ism and
15       renames them to have extensionsn of .frm, .MYD, .MYI, .ISD, and .ISM,
16       respectively. This can be useful after transferring the files from a
17       system with case-insensitive filenames (such as Windows) to a system
18       with case-sensitive filenames.
19
20       Invoke mysql_fix_extensions like this, where data_dir is the pathname
21       to the MySQL data directory.

23          shell> mysql_fix_extensions data_dir
