hcismatconvert
There are two formats for file based SMAT: old and new. This script converts between the file-based SMAT format and database-based SMAT format. This script can only be used as a database export utility.
When a SMAT database file is encrypted, the encryption information is read
from $HCISITEDIR/siteInfo environment variable or it
can be overridden with the -s
option.
Note: The default is a forward conversion that
overwrites the input file. If the input file name has the .smatdb extension, then this is a SMAT database export.
hcismatconvert [-b] [-f] input filename [-o output filename] [-s siteInfo path]
-
-b
is a backwards conversion, new to old. This does not apply to SMAT database (.smatdb) import/export. -
-f
forces a database update. This is only for a database import.If the output file exists, then the database import fails.
If a force is specified, then the data is imported to the existing database of that name.
-
input filename
is the input file namedfilename
. -
-o output filename
outputs to the file namedfilename
instead of overwriting input. If the file name has the.smatdb
extension, then this is a SMAT database import. -
-s siteInfo path
is the siteInfo path for the SMAT database import/export.Caution:Do not use this option for a file database export.
