    • Product Version: 21

    Problem Symptoms:
    The following error occurs in the Aleph 20 -21 Upgrade Express step 1001:

    xxx30 Z69_ID Z69
    Creating index z69_id in xxx30.
    ...
    ...
    STORAGE (INITIAL IND NEXT z69_id1 MINEXTENTS 1 PCTINCREASE 0)
    *
    ERROR at line 2:
    ORA-02218: invalid INITIAL storage option value

    Cause:
    Blank parameters for z69_id in the xxx30 file_list.

    Resolution:
    1. Correct the following line in the ./xxx30/file_list:

    IND z69_id

    to

    IND z69_id 1M 1M TS1X

    2. If the ./xxx30/file_list has no entry for z69_id and the $aleph_root/tab/file_list.COURSE is being used and the z69 table is not desired for the xxx30 library, add the following line like to the xxx30/file_list:

    NA z69_id

    This line indicates "Not Applicable" and overrides the line from the file_list.COURSE.
