Hi all,
Thanks for the various suggestions. Research has shown that fnuxi sometimes
hangs on the DATA.30 files but conversion of the directory representing the
dynamic file appears to work ok. Because of the directory hierachy used by
this site, some of the suggestions simply don't work but it looks like we
can do it in two passses; one for the dynamic file (process all directories)
and one for dictionaries and indices (process files beginning D_ or I_).
It's messy but it looks hopeful. It's a great shame that fnuxi doesn't work
better and even have a recursive option. It has cost about a day and a half
of work to get something that looks like it might work.
Brian's suggestion of using uvbackup and uvrestore was considered as a last
resort. With the vast number of files on this system, this is likely to be
painful process.
Thanks again for the help.
