Dan,

That must be new for 9i, since my 8.1.7 docs say it is an "offline"
utility.  I remember hosing an entire 7.3 test database years ago when I
first ran DBV on it while it was up and open - can't remember the errors,
but the DB was unusable.  One of the (too) many times I learned to read the
docs more carefully.     :-(

Yes, you can. It may report that a block is influx if the block is being
written while dbv is looking at it. If you encounter this error, run it
again. If it does not report the same block, you are in the clear.
As with any i/o intensive process, run it off-hours.
