Handling Oss Files; Handling Sql/Mp Files - HP T6553 D45 Reference Manual

FUP Overview
You likely need to change existing applications to access Format 2 files over 4 GB in
size that are not key-sequenced. These files require the use of a 64-bit primary key,
and system interfaces preceding G06.00 or D46.00 support only 32-bit primary keys.
Applications are unlikely to require any changes to access key-sequenced Format 2
files.
Except for key-sequenced files, all partitions of a file must have the same format
(Format 1 or Format 2). You cannot create a key-sequenced file with a mix of partition
formats. However, you can replace the partitions one at a time with equivalent Format
2 partitions if the block and record sizes are the same for all partitions.
You should convert a key-sequenced partition to Format 2 when it approaches its
capacity limit:
1. Create a new Format 2 replacement partition on a different volume.
2. Load the data into the new partition from the Format 1 partition.
3. Change the file partition information to point to the new Format 2 partition instead
of the Format 1 partition.
If Format 2 files are created on a system running D46.00, G06.00, or subsequent
RVUs, fallback to an RVU prior to D46.00 or G06.00 precludes access to the contents
of those files. Access to Format 2 files in an Expand network from RVUs before D46.00
or G06.00 will not be possible.

Handling OSS Files

FUP can only handle OSS files with the FUP INFO command. OSS files cannot be
specified in any other FUP commands.

Handling SQL/MP Files

One of the relational database management systems that is used to define and
manipulate industry-standard Structured Query Language (SQL) is SQL/MP. SQL/MP
files include object programs, tables, views, indexes, partitions, and catalogs. All the
FUP commands (unless noted) are applicable to the SQL/MP object program files.
Note. The FUP SET, RESET, and SHOW commands do not apply to SQL/MP files. They
apply only to Enscribe files. The FUP control commands described in
Command Summary, do not operate on SQL/MP files.
