CAUSE:
Bug 19990331-001
CAUSE:
Errors indicate that the sum of all BI extent sizes is greater then 2 GB BI file size limit.
FIX:
The error occurs because of how the Database Manager reads and writes to the Before Image file. Prior to version 9 the BI file was looked at as single file, regardless of the # of extents involved. If the sum of the all BI extent sizes exceeded 2 gig you would experience these errors. Unfortunately, the prostrct utility allowed you to create these extents without adhering to internal limits.
The bug with prostrct which allowed you to create a total number of bi files whose sum is greater than 2 Gig is fixed in 8.3C and Progress 9.1A. Upgrade to either latest 8.3 or 9.1 commercial release.
