Subject: copy data from prod database schema to dev database schema


I want to copy data from our production database to the development
database. I want to move only the data. I do not need the table structure,
constrains or anything else.

I think I can use the db2move command to export out all the data like the
following:

db2move dbname export -tc schema1


When I load the data into our development database, will it recreate the
tables? My problem is that I do not want to recreate the structure. I want
to make sure that I am copying over only the data.

Is db2move the best utility to move the data between two databases without
making any structure changes to the target database?
