We have discovered a very dangerours bug in FRU in MD2. Now everyone who
converts to MD3 also has to use this facility. If you all click on FRU icon,
there are a few prompts about a backup, etc. Then appears a block with a
tickbox option to Rebuild Document Databases . In red it advises you that it
will significantly increase the time taken.
In some users, ticking this box will delete the content of a significant
number of letters / documents. A MD2 user I was helping, phoned me in a
panic. By restoring his backup, these documents were returned. He has now
done a FRU without ticking the box, and I'm awaiting his phonecall to see if
that left the letters / documents intact.
So anybody who uses FRU to convert to BP or MD3, do not tick this option -
just run FRU without it.
Cedric,
I wonder if this is the basis for Peter Machell's report about the
slowdown in MD3 rollout by HCN?
If it proves that the experience you recount is repeatable/inevitable,
then everyone using MD2 does have to sit tight for the moment.
Can you give us some idea of the size of the documents tables concerned?
