I had the same problem with a migration from a Data General to an AIX/UniVerse 10.1.7. I undid the distribution on the Data General, did the migration, and re-build the distribution on the UniVerse side and it worked fine. The problem is that when you migrate the file, it actually get created anew and the header information is lost from you original system.

I will even get more specific so I don't waste your time. When trying to run a REBUILD.DF, it could not read or find the header. When I tried to remove the header and tried to DEFINE.DF, I got a message saying that the partblocks were bad. This is when I used the fixtool utility on the first set of distributed files. I was then able to perform a DEFINE.DF and recreate my data. This was the first set, however. The second set of data is still running under fixtool but it has been running for almost 13 hours on only one distributed file (I have 9 more to go!). Of course, this is a test in preparation for the live migration; however, I will not have that kind of downtime when performing the migration. If I can do something better, I would like to know. Many Thanks! 2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
