GOAL:
What is the best way to convert a version 7 or 8 db to v9 on another platform?
FIX:
The best way is to dump and reload right away:
a) create an empty v9-db on the new platform on the basis of a new st-file
(prostrct create + procopy emptydb)
b) dump the old db and reload it into the new v9 empty db on the new platform.
c) do idxbuild if binary dump or bulkload was used
This way you are most flexible in creating the new db structure and you
save one ore more steps (conv-utility).
