Hi all, We are running IDS v7.31.UD6W1 on an AIX 4.3 box. There are currently 4 instances active with several databases inside each. Recently I was finally given permission to experiment with Index fragmentation. I created an new dbspace and ran "alter fragment init" on all the indexes. Running "oncheck -pe" shows that all the indexes were moved correctly. However, running "dbschema -ss" causes a Segmentation Fault and dumps a corefile. The schema always fails at the same point (2nd index of 3rd table), but a "dbschema -t -ss" for that table works fine. I saw messages from Art (years ago) mentioning that his "myschema" program bypasses a bug in dbschema. I compiled it, but got the same Segmentation Fault and core dump. Any ideas what is wrong? Thanks, Michael Hoffman
