Non-Empty Database File

If the database file is not empty, the required database file structures to support partitioning can be created only by executing the JADE Database Administration utility (jdbadmin) utility with the action=MakePartitioned action, as shown in the following example.

jdbadmin path=c:\jade\system ini=c:\jade\jade.ini action=MakePartitioned file=customer

Setting the partitioned property on an existing map file requires a special file-based reorganization to convert the standard map file to a partitioned file.
