We're moving from one machine running AIX 4.3 and Universe 9.5 to a new machine
running AIX 5.3 and Universe 10.2.4.
Using tar.
The majority of the move goes fine. Usual hassles. Recataloging,
Reindexing.
But two critical large files repeatedly are a problem. Both are type 30s.
And appear fine on the original machine. Once moved, we can't even count them
without the following message.
WARNING: Internal file corruption detected during file open!
File must be repaired, possible truncation.
hsize: 2048 bsize: 2048 fsize: 1073741312
WARNING: Internal file corruption detected during file open!

hsize: 2048 bsize: 2048 fsize: 1073741312
Unable to open "GL.DETAILS" file.
And uvfilefix just curls up its toes and dies.
Production machine shows
1,048,576 -rw-rw-rw- root sys 1,073,741,312 (same as the fsize).
The other file PAYABLES shows
1,048,576 -rw-rw-rw- root sys 1,073,741,312
---was there some change in type 30 formating between 9.5 and 10+? that we
didn't know about. I've only been with this company for 7 months, but we so
far haven't had to repair any files.
These are the only two files with problems and we can break them into smaller
non-30 files for the move and then recombine them. But if anybody knows of a
type 30 issue, then I'd appreciate any heads up.
thanks
Roger Glenfield
