Just make sure there are no tables which were altered that might have
undergone inplace alter (7.23 only did this in a limited number of types
of alters). If so you must update every row in those tables (UPDATE
table SET acolumn = acolumn;) so that the alter is completed before
attempting the upgrade otherwise it will fail and you may not be able
to back down to 7.23 either. You can use oncheck -pT to see if any
tables have a Version number greater than 0 in the "Home Data Page
Version Summary" part of the report if so that table has been altered
in place and the rows need to be updated to force the alter to complete.
