Hi, We are on Solaris, running Universe and had a system failure the other day which affected one of our distributed files. After running a uvfixfile on the first partfile, we still got the message "Warning: No link to overflow group 325598". We were able to count/select the file without problems, but were uneasy about the error.
We created new files as a backup then did a COPY of the data to the backup files. After completing the copies, we removed the old distributed file and all of the old part files, then setup a new distribution with the copied data. Now if we run a uvfixfile on the newly created first partfile, we receive the message "Warning: No link to overflow group 325599". Why we still have this error after creating a brand new file set is beyond us. In addition, we had an open file error during program execution. After tracing through the debugger, there is a program that does a file open, then calls a subroutine that opens the file again. The first open succeeds, the second fails. (why we are doing a double open is well, dumb, but that's another issue). Even more bizzare, if we create a test program that does an open, and another test program that re-opens the file, both open statements succeeed. We are at a loss and are very uneasy with the current situation. Has anyone ever experienced any similar events? We would appreciate any guidance you may have to share. We have escalated within our software group, which will hopefully be escalated to Rocket for resolution. We wanted to post here also in the hope we might find some resolution. Much appreciation for your time. _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
