Re: [U2] Indexes have disappeared
I just found out that the original indexes had a virtual path (correct terminology?) (../directory.name), which didn't work with the new version of UniVerse (10.2.7), so our vendor changed them to a physical path (u2/ directory.name), which didn't match our other system. So now we do a SET.INDEX every day after the copy from computer A to computer B.

RE: [U2] Indexes have disappeared
As far as I know it's always worked that way. Question, the copies you made before, were they on the same system? If so you were using the same indices for both your live and copied data. Usually this causes some strange results when using the indices.

Re: [U2] Indexes have disappeared
Are the file systems truly identical, or are you using symbolic links to make them look the same? Use SET.INDEX filename INFORM to see where your index is really pointing. -Rick On Apr 22, 2008, at 3:12 PM, Louie Bergsagel wrote: We use flashcopy to move data from one computer to another, and recently noticed that UniVerse is no longer recognizing the indexes even though they are copied along with the files.

RE: [U2] Indexes have disappeared
You probably just need to use SET.INDEX to change the pathname to where the index file is now located. It's been discussed lots of times in this forum is the most common problem with indexes in UV.

Re: [U2] Indexes have disappeared
We've never done a SET.INDEX, but the indexes used to work just fine. I wonder if they have to be set once and they work until the next upgrade? -- Louie --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

RE: [U2] Indexes have disappeared
If not an identical pathname now, it would simply mean you had an old index at the same pathname previously. Now it appears you don't. Index broken - 'cause index is not there.

RE: [U2] Indexes have disappeared
Louie, Within each file 'header' is a pointer to the index file. It is stored as a full path name (unless specified otherwise). If the account is moved and the file paths change, then the link/pointer to the index file will break (no longer point to the index file). The SET.INDEX enables you to reset the pointer/link back to the index file. For more info, see the latest UniVerse User Reference manual, pages 1-488 to 1-490.
