When to use -VO startup parameter with Oracle Dataserver
The -VO startup parameter should be use only when copying all or part
of an Oracle schema to a Progress schema holder. Therefore it is not
relevant for day-to-day running of Progress applications.
This single user startup parameter is used to indicate to Progress
Data Dictionary program which Oracle version to expect during schema
pull.
Progress version 7.3A and above defaults -VO to Oracle version 7. The
example shows running Progress-to-Oracle Utility against Oracle
version 6.
pro -VO 6 source_db -p prodict/ora/protoora.p
Progress version prior to 7.3A defaults -VO to Oracle version 6. The
example shows running Progress-to-Oracle Utility against Oracle
version 7.
pro -VO 7 source_db -p prodict/ora/protoora.p
Besides using the Progress-to-Oracle Utility to copy Oracle schema
information to a Progress database; you can also use the Progress
dictionary uility:
Data Adminstration->Dataserver->Oracle Uilities->Add/Update table
defination.
Documentation on -VO can be found in:
System Administration II (Progress version 6 manual)
