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.

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,

RE: [U2] UV: Tru64 to Solaris

2006-02-15 Thread Hennessey, Mark F.

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! 

Thanks to all those who replied!

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.

A sister site will be moving from UV 9.something on Tru 64 to 
UV10.latest_they_can_get on Solaris 10.


Using UV backup/Uv Restore seems to be indicated.  Would it be best to use 
UVBACKUP for all universe accounts, or to use uvbackup on each account? 
Also, I think fnuxi/FORMAT.CONV must be run.  I think it would be best to:


UVBACKUP each UV account,
UVRESTORE on new Solaris box,
then fnuxi * using defaults.

Any comments, suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

I'm pretty sure that UVBACKUP / UVRESTORE will do all the "fnuxi"ing for
you

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.
