Yes, we've thought about it. That has it's own set of problem though. One is obviously the trouble of keeping multiple catalog db's around and assigning clients to them, this isn't a big problem but it does add complexity. The other is the extra bconsole overhead of having to know what catalog a client is in to perform certain operations. 'query' is a prime example, or restore, a catalog must be selected before any query/restore commands can be performed. This means you need to check what catalog a client is assigned to for every bconsole command that requires use of the catalog, which feels like it would get old fairly quickly. If anyone has any suggestions for using multiple catalogs in as transparent a manner as possible I'd be very happy to hear them. -- Simon Ekstrand ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stay on top of everything new and different, both inside and around Java (TM) technology - register by April 22, and save $200 on the JavaOne (SM) conference, June 2-5, 2009, San Francisco. 300 plus technical and hands-on sessions.
