Thanks to Tom, Steve, Kevin for the kind words about FAST. FAST isn't a "magic" solution, but it can certainly take a lot of the pain out of resizing. I'll be happy to field questions about FAST either here or privately. FAST is now actively used by over 2,000 shops worldwide on NT, UNIX and Linux for both UniVerse and UniData. Obviously, we are pretty proud of our product!
More info can be had at www.fitzlong.com or email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Our website contains a number of technical papers about files and resizing that may be helpful. Peggy and I have also authored a series (6 so far) of articles in Spectrum magazine about files. I think you can download these as .pdf files at http://www.intl-spectrum.com/SPECTRUMMAG.HTML.

I have used it and it does a great job, it has all of the manual ness and automation needed to control your environment.

When we used Pick D3, we could run a process which would store the mod to use on restore in the file definition item. If we did a full system file save and restore, the files would be recreated with the "new and improved" mod. We use to do this on a fairly regular basis, but since changing to UniData, we haven't really addressed this. I know I can use guide to get suggested resizing, and that I can use memresize to actually resize an individual file, but is there a way to do this system wide? We are considering migrating to a newer machine, and since we would have a system with no users on it for a while, it seems to be the best time to implement a massive update. Pointers to the correct manual would be appreciated, or a brief summary. I'm certain that this has been discussed before, but I couldn't find it in the archives. --Tom Pellitieri Century Equipment Toledo, Ohio ------- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
