ABSTRACT:
An unload of a hierarchical database may be performed utilizing a segment specific selection criteria. A segment specific selection criteria is received wherein the criteria comprises a global directive and a set of segment directives. The database definition for the hierarchical database is read and then a logical processing map is built utilizing at least the global directive, the set of segment directives and the database definition. A segment is read from the hierarchical database and then, if the segment has a type identified by the logical processing map and is not an excluded root segment, it is written to a target unload file.
