I made two stupid errors today - one, typing in a command that caused a RESIZE on a live file... and two.. doing a kill -9 on the resize process.
Thanks to an online backup of this file, we're up and running with a copy from last night. What i'm now trying to do is see if there have been any changes to this file since last night. The sort of file it is I expect some. It's more or less a static file with a handful of updates during each day. It's not a heavy transaction file. We don't have logging or transaction logs or such. Where I am: I've got a copy of the file immediately after the aborted resize. I can list it and select it, but I can't ED or CT - it's as if there is a record lock - but there is none. From TCL my screen freezes but I can still control-backslash out. I've made a unix copy of the file and tried same.. and also done a uvfixfile which reports: ------------------------------------------------ >UVFIXFILE DRVR-ag Beginning TRACE of DRVR-ag. TRACE of DRVR-ag completed. Scanning overflow buffers. Scan complete. 531 group(s) processed. 655 group buffer(s) processed. 1076 record(s) processed. Number of data bytes = 756796. ------------------------------------------------- At unix level the file is reported as being 1345536 bytes - so it's only processing 1/2 the file ? However it could be oversized ? Any pointers on how to go about accessing the 1076 records in thsi file would be great. I'm already doing the manual one by checking with users. 1076 by the way is the expected number of records - so it doesn't look like we've lost any.
