Multi-threaded binary dump

Is there usually a delay when finishing a binary dump and the files getting renamed from .bn.bd to .bn, and the dumplist being populated. A 40GB table I dumped earlier hasn't renamed the files and the dumplist file is still empty over an hour later.
Can I just rename the files by hand and populate the dumplist?
Win7 Progress 11.2.1.
 
Are you 100% sure it isn't still running? Or that it actually completed successfully?

I have seen a few seconds delay on windows (especially with network shares) but never anywhere near close to an hour.

That's from my log file. Doesn't look like anything untoward happened. It's definitely finished and it created an empty dumplist file.
 
Hmmmm... there is something in the 11.3.2 SP (PSC00261182) about the dumplist not being created even though the data was dumped correctly.

I would proceed with caution and maybe double check with PSC support, depending on how important that data is to you :)
 
The data's of absolutely no value in reality. Just doing a test dump and load into a new structure so that I can prove it works, and see what some of the benefits are. Thanks for your assistance.
