11.2 PDX Failure and Reasons
PDX was designed to be used with ENVOX type databases. It can fail
with non-ENVOX databases. The following are validation checks that
PDX will perform before creating a file of the database data.
A Fatal error means that PDX has failed. A Warning message means
that PDX will proceed but some data may be missing. The text of the
warning message gives an indication of that data.
The following messages may be displayed:
Check Users have corresponding logins
Message Fatal - References to non-existent users
Reason All users and aliases in the database must have corresponding logins
(enforced in SYBASE 10.0, and possibly earlier releases)
Check Check that all user ids can be resolved
Message Fatal - References to non-existent users
Reason All objects, types, and protections must belong to users who appear in
the sysusers tab le
Check No tables/indexes exist on non-standard segments
Message Warning - User defined segments encountered - default
will be used
Check Do sysusermessages exist
Message Warning - User messages will not be transferred
Check Constraints (sysconstraints & sysreferences)
Message Fatal - Constraints are not supported
