Restarting Installation Workbench

When you restart Installation Workbench, these items create a temporary table in the new format:

  • Temp tables (used for in-place table conversions)

  • Alter conversions

  • Merge conversions

The temporary table is named TableNameTCTEMP. If you are restarting a conversion, first verify the original table was not dropped, then drop the temp table. For a Table Conversion, the base table must be in the old format. For Alter and Merge Conversions, no further action is necessary.

For performance reasons, several conversions use their own temporary table that has been defined in the specifications. The recovery for each of these may be different.

To rerun a conversion, reset the status of the conversion in Table Conversion Planner from 35, 45, or 50 to 30. If a conversion is still running when workbench is restarted, leave its status at 45.
