restore a Progress version 6 database from tape
The restore is from an OS backup of all database files on tape.
The current installation of Progress is Progress 8.2B
CAUSE:
Progress 8x cannot be used to start a Progress 6x database
FIX:
Two possible methods to allow the restored database to be started by Progress 8, each depending on the condition of the bi file:
A If the bi file is not truncated:
1. Install Progress 6
2. truncate the bi file
3. Run proutil <dbname> -C conv68 from the version 8 install
4. Run pro <dbname>
B. If the bi file is truncated then:
1. Run proutil <dbname> -C conv68 from the version 8 install
2. Run pro <dbname>
