Hi,
 Well I guess it was just that the rollback was taking an unreasonable
amount of time. 
        Is it possible to drop the table before the db tries the
rollback on startup, so that the db can come up in a consistent state?

        Or alternately startup the db with that table tablelocked and
other tables accessible?
Regards,
Ajit

Hello Ajit,

in 7.3 the logentries of large transactions are copied into transaction
specific log files in the data area if the log is becoming full.
This makes it possible to overwrite the log area and to assure that the
rollback will work.
Regards,
Uwe
