When you run the ssadbcopy command for data export, the utility generates a TAR archive file, a data file list, and a log file on the source system. The utility stores the files in a temporary file location that you specify in the command. The TAR archive file and the data file list are required to import the data in the target system.
You can use an FTP server to copy the files to the target system, or you can manually copy the files to the target system. You specify which mode you want to use when you run the utility.
