9.4. Analyze the dump SQL before importing

The “Analyze the Dump SQL” button triggers an additional check that is particularly useful for an old dump, a standalone SQL file, or a dump for which pre-check information is unavailable.

During the analysis, SQLmig displays the progress, the amount read, the speed, an estimate of the time remaining, the number of databases and tables encountered, and the number of signals detected.
