Remember moving just one dataset from an entire database is a real case
of a ruthless juggler of reality.  The balls fall on this one though.

Don't try it.

Subject:        Quick Replace of TurboImage dataset

We have a test box and a production box.  We run processes on the test
box to
offload them from the production box.  A particular process requires
13-14
hours on the production box to populate an 8-million record TurboImage
dataset.  The same job on the test box requires about the same amount of
time. The benefit of running on the test box is that cpu processing time
is
not being consumed on the production box.

If one was to back up the datafile (Image master and detail files) on
the test
box, is it safe to restore that file onto the production box?  I don't
know
enough about how image databases and image root files work to say if
this will
cause problems.

Your input is greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
