When you said "0 bytes", did you really mean zero bytes at the os? Or
did you mean zero records, i.e., an empty data file from the UV
perspective?
What was the file's type? The name "LINEITEM" suggests hashed. Static
or Dynamic? What would it look like if you lacked r or x rights

While we're at it, you don't even need anything to the left of the

creating a new, empty file, or for replaci

My first guess
On *nix systems, you could do this with
echo "" > /path/to/filename
Might be something to scan for in scripts.
Any new cron scripts put in the week or so before the effect was seen?

Even a CLEAR.FILE will not leave the file at 0 bytes - it always leaves a

My first guess would be a TCL DELETE command that was expecting a hightly

Was the zero byte thing transient or was it really at zero bytes and
therefore damaged? I would certainly suspect a script (m

But if it's heavily used...that may slow the system down.

Good Morning,
We are running Universe 10.1.17 on AIX 5.3 and we had an incident last
