was trying to resize a file on universe/NT and the process obviously
got hosed up. it ran for upwards of three hours before we gave up on
it.

it is one of those blasted files with multiple data sections.

so, we have the files
AR
and 
AR,HIST

i was trying to resize AR,HIST. active users where accessing only the
AR file itself, so i thought i could get by with resizing AR,HIST
while others where online. it looks like it started to work, but
should have completed in a matter of minutes based on past experience,
so it did get hung up for some reason.

if i display the files in the directory - i see the following:

11/30/04  03:10p        <DIR>          .
11/30/04  03:10p        <DIR>          ..
11/30/04  03:05p             2,569,728 AR
11/30/04  03:05p             5,343,232 HIST
11/30/04  03:10p             4,093,440 resizea00355
               5 File(s)     12,006,400 bytes
                            619,339,264 bytes free


so, it looks like *maybe* the data for the HIST section and this temp
resizea00355 file might actually have the data, but when you try to
access the file AR,HIST from TCL your session just locks up.

can still access just the live AR file - no problem there.

anyone know how to piece this thing back together without restoring
from backups?
