[erlang-questions] mnesia node table copy shortcut?

[Vinayak Pawar]

Like this?

Node = % node to copy these tables
StorageType = fun(T) -> mnesia:table_info(T, storage_type) end,
Tabs = mnesia:system_info(local_tables) -- [schema],
[mnesia:add_table_copy(Tab, Node, StorageType(Tab)) || Tab <- Tabs].
