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
