All,

I've been away for a week or so. I don't see this mentioned here, if it has been please forgive the repeat.

If you migrated a database from 8i to 9iR1, and are now looking at migrating to 9iR2, you need to review note 197737.1 on Metalink for a nasty bug that might be waiting
for you. If you are using multiple freelist groups, this bug will impact you.
Basically, there is a patch you need to apply to the RDBMS before you begin to do your upgrade.

Clark Griswold: Eddie, has anyone ever told you that you're bad luck? Cousin Eddie: Those were my mother's dying words. But I guess if your body's covered in third degree burns, and your foot's caught in a bear trap, you tend to start talkin' crazy.
