Asterisk 11                                     30 SEPTEMBER 2013                                   ASTDB2BDB(8)

       Up  until  version  version  11,  Asterisk used an old version of the Berkeley DB 1.86 (bdb) to store its
       internal persistent database. In version 11 it switched to using a SQLIte 3  database.  This  program  is
       used to convert the newly-formatted SQLite 3 astdb back to bdb.

       You may need it in case of reverting an upgrade or other similar scenarios.

       In  case  you  want  to revert an upgrade to Asterisk 11, you can do the following (while Asterisk is not
       running):

         cd /var/lib/asterisk && astdb2bdb astdb.sqlite3 && rm astdb.sqlite3

       This will convert the newly-formatted astdb back to the old format, and delete it (to avoid obsolete data
       copies).

       Berkeley DB 1.86 is obsolete. It is incompatible with newer versions (4.x and newer)  that  you  may  see
       around. Chances are you don't have the tools to use it independently of Asterisk.

       There is a single (and required) parameter: the path the the sqlite file.  The output file will be a file
       called astdb in the current working directory.
