I wonder why the upgrade scripts were rebuilding the FET$, UET$ tables.
When you mention sql.bsq -- that applies only when you CREATE the database.
Did you CREATE and IMPORT to do the upgrade ? IMPORT would certainly
be active on FET$ and UET$.

Hi Jeremiah,
The problem arose in the catalog upgrade script. It would never
return. My diary says we let one attempt run for 36 hours. The process
showed CPU usage and I/O but nothing happened. Some of the Oracle guys
figured the problem was with the $fet (or whatever tables hold the
extent
info, I never bother with the internals of the data dictionary) having
problems while being restructured. Once the tables were changed from 40K
to 500M
extents the upgrade took less than 2 hours.
One of the suggestions I did not use was to edit sql.bsq to provide much
larger
extents for the table holding the extent info. Even though I do this for
the SOURCE$ table I am a big fan of the KISS principle and rebuilding
the tables
needed to be done anyways.
