[Glass] Compact a extend0.dbf

Ciao,

i have a 3.1.0.4 extend0.dbf file with dimensions of 13GB.

The SystemRepository freeSpace report more of 12 GB .

Now my questions is :

i can compact the extend0.dbf so as to have a more manageable file.

If yes the compacting it 's a long time procedures?

It's a risky procedure ?

Thank for any help,

Dario

Dario,

The procedure for compacting extent files is:

1. make a full backup

2. shut down stone

3. cp a virgin extent ($GEMSTONE/bin/extent0.seaside.dbf) into your

data directory

4. start stone

5 restore from backup
