SOFTWARE NOTES:

o This release was ported with ORACLE Version 6.
o This release supports Embedded SQL (HLI) for C.

o Online Backups:
--------------
The use of the -o (overlap factor) is not supported in this
release; you must restore the incremental backups exactly the
same way as you did when you backed them up or you will have
problems. For example,
proshut demo -C online /dev/rst8
proshut demo -C online /dev/rst8 incremental -o 2
After restoring the full backup, if you skip any of the
incrementals, you receive an error message indicating that
the tapes are out of sequence and the restore fails.

Workaround: Make sure all backups are restored in exact order.

o Fast Track
----------

If you use the convft utility to convert your database to a
Fast Track database, you must set the PROEXE environment variable
first:

PROEXE=/usr/dlc/_progres;export PROEXE
convft database-name

o Procedure Library - icompile.p
------------------------------

If you extract icompile.p from the Procedure Library and use it to
compile procedures, you will receive the following error message:

** Attempt to write to closed stream cproc. (1387)

Your procedures will compile, but you will get the error message
for every procedure compiled.

Workaround: To correct the problem, perform the following steps:

1. Enter the icompile.p file and look for the follwoing
block:

DO WHILE TRUE.
statements...
END.

2. Place an IF..THEN statement block around the DO WHILE TRUE
as follows:

IF compproc <> "" THEN DO:
DO WHILE TRUE.
statements...
END.
END.

3. Save the changed icompile.p and use it to compile your
procedures.
