We have a Progress table with a few fields that are using extent (about 4 extents for each field with different data format). When I use PRO_ELEMENT such as shown below: ..., PRO_ELEMENT("table"."field",1,1), PRO_ELEMENT("table"."field",2,2), PRO_ELEMENT("table"."field",3,3)...

Thanks, Casper. Please correct me if I am wrong... From SQL 2000 query: with (INDEX("PUB"."Table_Name"."Index_Name")) Am I safe to say that this is correct syntax? Thanks, Bob.

I try to run the DTS package which has th following statement from my SQL2000 server and get the syntax error. select * from PUB."table_name" with (index=index##name) We have Progress 9.1E SP4 on AIX 5.2 machine. The SQL2000 server is on Windows 2003 which has a DataDirect ODBC driver to...

Sound like you miss the bos.adt.debug toolset from BOS. BoB.

Hi All, I just enabled 64-bit kernel on one of my AIX 5.2 test server to see if I can run my QAD MFGPRO eB 32-bit application or not. I was able to bring the QAD db up and test all the functionality and the system ran flawlessly. I am wondering if anyone has run QAD MFGPRO 32-bit application...

Quick Calculation: Physical Mem = -B value x Data Block Size Ex.: Let assume that you data block size is 8192, the current -B that you have will use: 2000 x 8192 = 15.6 MB Depend on what operating system that you use and if you are using 32-bit or 64-bit application/progress. For...

1. Yes, the index utilization increase over the year before d&l. In fact, I did a dbanalys before dump. Some of the table in the data area did have a very high scater factor (between 2 to 5). I ran another dbanalys after load and full index rebuild... and notice that the scater factor in the...

I noticed that after my first dump and load of the database with full index rebuild. The size of some index area is reduced to almost half of its size before d&l even though the data area for that index has never been archived. This is great but I would like to know why the size of the index...

We use binary dump to dump all data on one of our bigest table called 'customer' which is about 13 GB. We got about 7 binary dump files with suffix like .db1, .bd2 etc. My question is how do we load all these bin file back into the table? And should we load the last file first (.bd13) or...

Thanks, 80% full limit... is it a system file size of the dump data directory? Is this in Progress document or QAD document? Bob

Hi All, I am testing an in-place coversion on the production db from MFGPRO eB SP5 to eb 2.1 SP5 with Progress OE10.1A02. I am following QAD eB2.1 Conversion Guide - Progress Database and run into a strange problem... The conversion fail to update the source schema using the delta schema file...

Hi All, We have a warm-spare db on a different server. I am wondering if I can ship the filled AI extents over and roll forward while the db on this warm-spare server is online. The reason is that warm-spare database is also being used for running report during the day (before the next refresh...

All I got is "?". The data-type on the Progress field is also date. That is why I do not understand why SQL think it is a string data type when pulling over the data (pro_element). Thanks, BoB.

Hi All, I try to pull the data from a Progress array (9.1E) over to a SQL 2000 table using PRO_ELEMENT and I recevied to following error: "...Conversion invalid datatypes on column pair 1 (source column 'pro_element(item_date,1,1)'(DBTYPE_STR), destination column...

Hi All, Do you know that Progress 9.1E has been tested on AIX 5.3 yet? Thanks, Bob.

:confused: Hi All, Is it possible that qaddb can be loaded into multiple test environment? I want to create mutliple test enviroments from the production database and having a start script that user can launch to connect to his/her test database with -ld qaddb. Thanks, Bob.

Thanks, Cecil. Mr. Backmam's DBA scripts are very good. However, his 'kill_user' script is used to kill all users process that are currently connected to db. This script is good when you use in cluster environment...when you want to make sure all users off the db before shutting it down.

Yes, I do have wdog running...However, sometimes it works...But 50% of the time it is not working...And no matter how I educate users...They only listen to me in about a week...Then stranded session coming back again and again...and as most of you are aware, no matter what you said...users are...

Hi All, I have a couple of user telnet session that is not log out probably...so they start new ones which in turn leave the old client processes active on the UNIX server. I can only disconnect these stranded sessions manually on the following day using promon, and using previous day as the...

Have you try a -com as well? Bob.
