Re: [U2] UV: Tru64 to Solaris
Yes, you are correct. After posting my comment, I talked with our DBAs and they informed me that it was an exponential rather than additive. I'm just a programmer. File sizing is a foreign concept to me. Gordon J.

Re: [U2] UV: Tru64 to Solaris
Hi Gordon, Actually, as other posters have mentioned, 64 bit files allow for file sizes much larger than 2gb. However, there was a bug in Universe 9.6.x which in effect limited 64 bit files to 2gb. This was fixed on subsequent releases, but if the 64 bit file was created on 9.6, then it will still have the 2gb limit. You need to use RESIZE on the file to remove the 2gb limit. hth, asvin [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote on 14/02/2006 21:29:23: > As the 64 bit version of UV allows files to be twice the size of regular > UV, it would behoove you to check file sizes before doing the backup.

RE: [U2] UV: Tru64 to Solaris
As the 64 bit version of UV allows files to be twice the size of regular UV, it would behoove you to check file sizes before doing the backup. You may have to break some files down to smaller parts if the file size is over the 2 gig limit. An excellent point!

Re: [U2] UV: Tru64 to Solaris
If it's anything like our recent conversion to Linux fnuxi will not have to be run the uvbackup and restore take care of that for you. We backed up each individual account to a file and copied these files over the network to the new system then restored it. Since we kept the same file locations there was no problem restoring the whole directory structure. You will have to update the accounts when you first log into them, it's automatic, so you should do it as root. All dictionaries will most likely have to be recompiled as will as the programs. Use a select and compile.dicts for the former and a select and basic for the later. Make sure you recatalog any globally cataloged programs. - Original Message - From: "Hennessey, Mark F." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Tuesday, February 14, 2006 2:24 PM Subject: [U2] UV: Tru64 to Solaris A sister site will be moving from UV 9.something on Tru 64 to UV10.latest_they_can_get on Solaris 10.

I'd drop all secondary indexes before the backup and re-create them after restore on the target system. This will make the backup & restore cycle quicker (maybe by quite a lot if you got lots of indexes), and you'll be sure your indexes are right after the restore, too. I'd re-compile and re-catalog all my software, too. Depending on where your source file are stored (in a separate account, maybe?), you could do this in advance of the main data transfer.
