well... u dont really need 2nd metadata, and u dont need any session/mappers/etc ORM-stuff at all. re-bind the metadata to new engine, then metadata.createall(), and then for each record in each table in metadata, tbl.select via src_engine, tbl.insert via dst_engine but u can try this way too.. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
