Lotus Nut

Recently I have run into an issue with moving users (specifically the "Accelerated Create Replica" AdminP request) from 7.x or earlier to 8.x servers. The new replica that gets created on the 8.x server is not at ODS48. The CREATE_R8_DATABASES=1 setting is correct on all servers. I have checked with IBM and this is similar to an internal technote.

So, in the meantime, I have whipped up some code to find databases not at ODS48, dump them into an Indirect File, and run a compact -v -n -c on them to enable design and "body" compression and perform the copy-style compact to update it to the new On-Disk Structure. :)
