Re: Deleting Chunk..
Are you daring enough to mess with the reserved pages? I wrote a program
to read the reserved pages to a text file, and one to write the text file
back.
By modifying the text file, I can rename my chunks and paths, and even
drop chunks. tbcheck -cr and -ce goes thru fine, but tbcheck -pe still
thinks that dropped chunk exists. I haven't figured that part yet. But
anyone with the Informix know-how could take the programs and make it
work. Anyone want to try?
Drop me a mail at AlvinKoh@WriteMe.COM if you are interested.
PS. Don't forget LEVEL 0 ARCHIVE and save your tbconfigs before doing anything.
