Status: Verified
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 8.x
Progress 9.x
SYMPTOM(s):
'proutil -C conv89' did not complete successfully.
Can't open db (Error code -210013)
Attempting to open the database in Version 9.X.
SYSTEM ERROR: Attempted to exceed maximum size on file . (9452)
Insufficient disk space to extend the before-image file. (2292)
SYSTEM ERROR: Attempted to exceed maximum size on file *.b1. (9452)
The dbname.st file lists a "variable-fixed" extent of 20MB that was not created by the user.
CHANGE:
Migration from Progress 8.x to Progress 9.x
CAUSE:
The original Progress 8.X structure file (.st) file did not contain an entry for the before image file (bi).
By performing the conv89, the .bi is set to a "variable-fixed" extent by the process.
This can be detected in the resulting .st file:
#
b . v 20000
#
FIX:
Workaround for this issue is to restore the version 8.X database and create a new structure file with an entry for the before image file.
WORKAROUND
[In the Progress 8.x environment:]
1.) proutil db-name -C truncate bi -G 0
2.) delete db-name.st file (if present)
3.) delete db-name.b1 file
3.) create an add.st structure file to add a before image extent.
Sample file should contain this line only:
b .\db-name.b1
4.) prostrct add db-name add.st
[In the Progress 9.x environment:]
5.) proutil db-name -C conv89
The conversion will now execute without any error messages.
