SeagateWhat
IS-IT--Management
I have inherited a Seagate Info 7 system that is flakey at best.
One employee ports data into the system (I am not really sure how I am still trying to figure this ancient system out) then she runs two reports. One of which is running nicely, the other runs but when you view the report there is no data.
When I went to check the application log (running on an NT4 box dear God) there are more errors than one can count. Most of which are:
Event ID: 2000
Invalid Arguement: SELECT CI_PARAMETER,.......long list of code I assume.
However after sorting through several pages of errors I fidn one that says:
Database has reached maximum size : SELECT CI_PARAMETER....same as above after the parameter.
Checked the database size (I assume cinfo.mdb) is 1,048578. Just over the 1 gig mark a good point to say hey no more.
What I am wondering is how would I go about viewing all the data in there and say purging anything before date X to another database and makign it an archive of sorts.
I have zero knowledge of this system at all. I am a network admin that got hired and the guy that did all this left a few months later without passing on much on this system besides pray it never fails......
thx for any suggestions
