[U2] Unidata can't build index

2011-01-28 Thread Jeffrey Butera
 Can anyone shed light on this (other than the obivous) - I'm unclear 
about why this is occurring:


:BUILD.INDEX H08.PERSON.LOOKUP XPL.PERSON.ID
Can not lock index file
No indices are built

This is a new file so I originally thought perhaps OS permissions where 
incorrect, but after checking I verified the permissions on the index 
file are 770.


I don't have anything writing to this file so I'm not clear why it can't 
get a lock on the index file.

Jeff, did you do a CREATE.INDEX H08.PERSON.LOOKUP XPL.PERSON.ID first?

Yes, LIST.INDEX properly displayed all the indices including 
XPL.PERSON.ID which was new (but not built).

BUILD.INDEX has to be able to get exclusive access to the primary file to start.
It then blocks updates to the primary file (reads allowed) until it is finished.
This is the long-time default behavior.

Of course, you can use BUILD.INDEX ... ONLINE to avoid that requirement.
This is a bit slower, but you can do it.
