+.SH NAME
+astdb2bdb \- convert astdb back to Berkeley DB 1.86
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+
+.B cd \fIastvarlibdir\fB && astdb2bdb path/to/astdb.sqlite3
+
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+Up until version version 11, Asterisk used an old version of the
+Berkeley DB 1.86 (bdb) to store its internal persistent database. In
+version 11 it switched to using a SQLIte 3 database. This program is
+used to convert the newly-formatted SQLite 3 astdb back to bdb.
+
+You may need it in case of reverting an upgrade or other similar
+scenarios.
+
+.SH OPTIONS
+There is a single (and required) parameter: the path the the sqlite file.
+The output file will be a file called
+.B astdb
+in the current working directory.
+
+.SH EXAMPLES
+In case you want to revert an upgrade to Asterisk 11, you can do the
+following (while Asterisk is not running):
+
+  cd /var/lib/asterisk && astdb2bdb astdb.sqlite3 && rm astdb.sqlite3
+
+This will convert the newly-formatted astdb back to the old format, and
+delete it (to avoid obsolete data copies).
+
+.SH NOTES
+Berkeley DB 1.86 is obsolete. It is incompatible with newer versions
+(4.x and newer) that you may see around. Chances are you don't have the
+tools to use it independently of Asterisk.

+.SH NAME
+astdb2sqlite3 \- convert astdb to SQLite 3
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+
+.B astdb2sqlite3 path/to/astdb
+
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+Up until version version 11, Asterisk used an old version of the
+Berkeley DB 1.86 (bdb) to store its internal persistent database. In
+version 11 it switched to using a SQLite 3 database. This program is
+used to convert an existing bdb astdb file to astdb.sqlite3.
+
+Normally the conversion is done by Asterisk itself which will run this
+program. But you may need to run it on your own.
+
+.SH OPTIONS
+There is a single (and required) parameter: the path the the bdb file.
+The output file name will be the same as the input, with
+.B .sqlite3
+appended.
+
+.SH EXAMPLES
+Asterisk will typically run the following to upgrade the database:
+
+  astdb2sqlite3 /var/lib/asterisk/astdb
+
+which will create \fB/var/lib/asterisk/astdb.sqlite3\fR.
