Subject: "value_info.pag" is enormous !!
>Hello All.
>
>In preparation for migrating from Netview V4.1 to Netview 5.1 I have
noticed
>a file called /usr/OV/databases/openview/ovwdb/current/value_info.pag which
>is over 2 GB in size !
>
>Now, I only have a half Gb of space remaining in the VG (AIX 4.2.1) so when
>I run the migration script, there will not be enough space.
>
>But, from what I have been reading, I can run a command called
>"nvTurboDatabase space" and this will shrink this file or something.
>
>Has anyone ever used this command and if so, did/how it work??

>Any info appreciated.
