I just found out today when trying to do a restore that my catalog files are not being merged. My Brightstor temp folder has files in it dating back to October 2006. I am getting no errors in my Activity log and when I try to run mergecat.exe nothing happens. Any help would be appreciated. I am running 11.1.
 
delete any *.tmp files from the temp directory
move out the first few oldest *.cat files
run mergecat
 
I'm trying your suggestion now. However, I wanted to know if there is a size limit to the VLDB that we should not exceed. Do you by chance know of any?
 
That may be my problem. I am around 25gb so I may need to move to SQL. Thanks for your help.
