Update a schema file to its associated database.
-
Right-click on the meta-schema file in the Projects or DB Schemas tab.
-
Select Update Schema ... or Update from Database.
-
Complete the Update meta-schema dialog as described in Extract meta-schema information from database. The Merge with existing meta-schema check box will be
checked.
This option will merge any changes made in the structure of a database into your meta-schema
file. This requires that you have access to the database. Any information that you have added to the
meta-schema will be preserved.
When the changes are merged, the Meta-schema Manager verifies that the database objects in the
original meta-schema still exist. If the object is no longer present in the database, it is removed
from the meta-schema.
