    Did you check if there is VMart folder  in /home/dbadmin?

  • There is nothing related with VMart inside /home/dbadmin/

     

    [dbadmin@example sbin]$ cd /home/dbadmin

    [dbadmin@example ~]$ ls
    Desktop  Documents  Downloads  Music  Pictures  Public  Templates  Videos
    [dbadmin@example ~]$

     

    But If you check from admintools it shows VMART database

  • Hello Shruti,

    This is what I did. Since there were already an existing databse named VMart but it was not showing all the tables and schemas inside VMART database. As a result I tried following  steps

    :-

    First

     

    1. [dbadmin@example ~]$ admintools

    2. Select 6 CONFIGURATION MENU

    3. Select 7 DROP DATABASE

    4. Selected M Menu

    5. Selected E Exit

     

    Second

     

    [dbadmin@example ~]$ /opt/vertica/sbin/install_example VMart

    And It now shows all the tables

     

    [dbadmin@example ~]$ vsql
