getSchema.ksh

Creates a schema file from a MySQL database. The schema file will be a text file containing the SQL commands required to entirely recreate the database without any data; i.e., all the CREATE TABLE commands. Three files are generated from this script: the first is the schema file itself, the second is a capture of standard output, and the third is a capture of standard error.

Usage Statement
USAGE: getSchema.ksh <dbName> <dbHost> <dbUser> <dbPass> [<dbPort>]

 where dbName is the database to get the schema for
       dbHost is the host the database is running on
       dbUser is the user to login as
       dbPass is the password to use
       dbPort is the optional database port (defaults to 3306)


Sample Invokation
# ksh getSchema.ksh myDatabase localhost root myPass
